    Well my guess it'd be a biggish mince pie at about a pound something. I bought a bourbon biscuit at Cost, cost over a pound, but it was a giant bourbon...

    Last year they were £1.55 each (no they don't come adorned with diamonds) :eek: They were voted joint winner in last year's Bloomberg Mince Pie contest, along with no less than Harrods. Allowing for inflation, the pie will probably be £1.75 this year. You would be better off using the coupon as a coffee mat and buying some Aldi Mince Pies ;)

    Cost will be an arm and a leg.

    considering how little corporate tax they pay, you'd have thought they could make the prices a bit cheaper!

  • £1.99 my Mum was charged today, she was so shocked even marks and spencers sell a box of 6 for cheaper than that. She told them to keep there coffee and mince pies, and she will be standing outside laughing when they go out of business, altogether for one coffee and one mince pie they wanted £5.24. She walked out.

    I did similar and walked out of C & H fabrics coffee shop when they tried to charge me 10p for the butter to go with my scone - and that was only 10p but I couldn't see how they could justify charging me for something that should be included!
    I must remember that "Money Saving" is not buying heavily discounted items that I do not need. :hello:
