I guess the title says it all really. Im after stocking up on jellies. I also like the value /smart price ones. Ive been in both supermarkets and couldnt see any and ive also checked on my supermarket but alas no supermarkets seams to sell them anymore. Has anyone seen any cheapish about please? I have all the supermarkets except Lidl thanks

    I have also been lamenting the loss of the value jelly in Mr T! The cheapest in Mr T now is 30p, and that's for a branded one!

    The cheapest I have found elsewhere is 15p for a sachet of Weight Watchers jelly in Home Bargains, if you have one of those nearby?

    Looking forward to seeing whether others have managed to track them down...!

    I thought it was just me who'd noticed this - they only have Hartleys in Tesco, Sainsburys and Asda near me! I used to eat a jelly cube a day but now its too expensive to do that! DOH!

    Butterfly Brain - I'm also a big fan of the 6p custard and 12p rice pud. I hadn't thought about using the batter mixes as I tend to make it from scratch, but at that price it'd be cheaper to use the mix than waste my flour! So thank you for the tip :D

    I was just looking for these today! Strange how we think alike on here. No sign of them in Mr M either.

    Thank you to all those who post competitions!:beer:

    Another vote here for the tins of Rice Pudding.

    I couldn't find any Value Pittas in Mr A's (or anywhere on the shelf for them either).....:(

    As this is a shopping question I've moved it over to the Grocery Shopping board to see if you can get more help.
