Anywhere got jars of Gold Blend coffee on offer?

My stock of Nescafe Gold Blend is almost gone. Does anyone know who is doing any offers on it? Last time I paid £6.50 for 2 x 200g jars which are about £4.50 each when I looked last week.

Thanks.

    Your best bet is to go to Sainsbury's or Tesco's and buy the big `catering' size tubs that they sell (inc. Gold Blend). I've unfortunatly just thrown my last tub away so can't exactly remember the size, but I purchased it for about £10 or £11 and it last for ages, alot longer than the normal jars you can get.
  • I like Sainsbury's Gold Blend too.

    This may be true where you live, but I have noticed that IT IS NOT TRUE in the supermarkets around our way. If you work out the ppu (price per unit, in this case price per 100g) it is often MORE expensive for the big tins. I think the supermarkets realise that most consumers think it is going to be cheaper, and don't actually check, so they get away with pricing the big tins higher. And of course commercial customers such as offices simply pick up the big tins without checking.

    Also, the aroma goes from the big tins long before you finish them unless you decant into smaller containers. :o
