Has anyone tried the ground value coffee? Was eyeing it up the other day but thought I'd ask the experts (you) first!

Yuk - tried to drop a brand but HATE Tesco Value baked beans! Will have to stick with Tescos own which are yummy!

I love value beans! Can't stand the leading brand anymore! As for coffee, buy beans and grind your own. Cheaper and tastes much better!

I love value beans now and dont buy anything else - tried the shower gel - its 10p and its ok but not a strong smell - great for kids.

Have we mentioned this one?

I don't know if they have them all the time, because I'd never seen them before, but Asda has a 1kilo pack of "Smart Price" sirloin steaks. They're perfectly alright, individually vacuum packed. They're very thin, but they'd make excellent sandwich steaks if you don't want to just eat a very thin steak. I think they're about £7 a kilo, which is pretty good for sirloin steak.

They're definitely much better quality than the usual thin frying/sizzle steaks. I mean, they cook up much more tender.

My OH had the value instant coffee, and he said it was alright, pretty drinkable (although he did prefer gold blend :rolleyes:)

I hated the baked beans. They are syrupy and taste like mixed spice

I am going to try the value casserole pork - my first foray into value meat

We eat this a couple of times a week for a cheap pudding. It's also a good way of getting the kids to have milk without them knowing it. You can also freeze it to make a nice ice cream.

Glad to see this thread is still going strong

I make this with extra milk and serve as a "thick" shake. My boys love it

Don't do it. I've got a lotta love for the value range but value tea / coffee are truly gross and you'll end up chucking it out. I'd be better putting the money towards a small but nice jar!
