They should be with normal items though ask one of the shop assistance if not.

In our branch olives are in the same aisle as salad dressings, chutneys, sauce, etc. The 75% off olives were there in among the full price ones.

Good reduction thank you Lugh_Chronain ! Pitted olives aren't as fun as doing the whole ones with a pitter. If you want to keep your olives longer make sure they are under brine/olive oil so they don't go mouldy. My mother puts hers in olive oil with dried herbs in a Le Parfait jar (airtight with spring clip)

While I think of it, if you scrape down into the jar after using pesto and cover the surface with olive oil, the pesto won't then go mouldy either.

As a really simple but good starter or snack, serve whole or pitted olives on a plate with a teeny puddle of olive oil and a teeny pile of sea salt. Dip in olive oil then roll in salt and eat. Probably not for you if you have high blood pressure though !

No green ones left in my local S's. Stocked up on a few of the 11p tins. Will keep me going until the end of the month, when I can eat the real thing fresh, at least for a couple of weeks.:)

Going to the big store later today, so hoping to pick up a supply of the green ones as well, as a consolation.

Oh yum! Not so keen on them in brine so i buy them, drain and fill with balsamic vinegar/ olive oil. Great prices will need to pop in next time im passing.

Thanks OP. None left in our local store so we ordered online using a £15 off £75 code and bought about 40 jars (BBE 2015 )...should last us a while! The guy who delivered had to double check we hadn't made a mistake

All varieties in my local. I also found jars of pitted and whole Kalamata. They were not such a bargain (50% off bringing them down to 1.25) but as they are my favourites I have stocked up.

Thanks OP.

Have stocked up! plenty on a promotional end in Farlington Portsmouth on BH Monday.

Any reason for the cheapness? Are they redesigning the packaging or something?
