    I've just had to force a fox's biscuit down with a brew (they have been opened for nearly 2 weeks!) and wish I hadn't. They are truly awful.
    There's only about 20 in the tin and I can't even get the kids to have any more.

    Any one else think they are minging as far as biscuits are concerned?

    I know I had the tin for nowt after being charged 10 quid initially but come on, some people will actually be buying these!

    Only thing nice about em is the tin!

    Caught up again you Lovely Elite.

    We have carols playing & now have the mammoth task of wrapping the presents :(

    Maybe a while.........I HATE wrapping, but it has inspired me to maybe suggest a photo competition of what you have in your OEP wrap?

    I was going to wrap one around the cat ;)

    Hahahahahaha WOW!!! That would be amazing and would take either extremely good luck.....or A LOT of MSE spirited dedication :rotfl::rotfl:


    just looked into this a bit more - supposidly, if your waters break whilst in Ts or As.. they give you free Nappies for a year....???!!!!!!


    a few different stores do different things, but i recon it would depend on the managers etc, not actual store policy.

    worth a try though eh!!!

    Seriously???!!! Oh man I LOVE LOVE LOVE these biscuits, they're my favourite. I'm gutted I missed out on these ones!

    You can always pull something large and accommodating over your PJs if you are nipping out... (be careful not to get into an accident after the recent anecdotes though :eek: )

    I am being serious about the tin of Fox biscuits though.

    I love choccie biscuits but these are just humongous discs of inferior chocolate with a tiny tuppence worth of biscuit sliver at the bottom.

    Yuck yuck yuck.

    If you were local, you could gladly have em!

    hi all thank God mine were a golden DTD and i that i took them back:D:D:D

    trying to keep up while packing, shhhh going away for a couple of weeks, will miss the sales:(:(:(

    presuming no-one has had the EOP glitch today?

    anyone confirmed the herball essences today at anywhere other than an express??

    also anyone confirmed the coco shreddies scanning at 50p?

    Not sure with a million things to do and not a clue where to start whether i can justify a trip to T's

    ps i measured my tortilla tower and it's 76cm (thats NOT counting the 10packs i gave my mum lol) am i in the lead??

    i have photographic evidence but am a bit busy to post pic, still not sorted the clip strip pic, trying to come up with more interesting ideas as bar has been raised.......not sure i'm up to posing in my undies ....sorry:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
