The idea of this thread is that when you remember bits you need for Christmas you haven't got yet and stick em down and then hopefully other posters can tell you if they are offer anywhere.

Also if you've written them down then hopefully you won't forget them and be sitting there on Christmas Day saying eek I forgot custard powder

we have to have the black pepper kettle chips too - got mine last week, £3 for 3, think it was Waitrose!


***just checked Waitrose site & it says 2 for £2.50 - but I definitely got 3 packs so it probably wasn't there?***

I think Tesco have loads of large packs of crisps including kettle chips, sensations, penn state pretzels and other of 3 for £3 at the moment.

My must put on list not to forget is gravy (don't make my own, too lazy and prefer the convenience), extra stuffing as we always need more, and sausages and streaky - god forbid I forgot or didn't have enough pigs in blankets for my lot!!

welshee the Co-op is doing Branston for £1 but I got it from Ocado for same price. Finding Hayward's piccalilli is proving difficult..

shimmigirl - my nearest Tesco is a bus ride away but with luck local Tesco Express might do it too ??? If not will ask my mother to nip into Waitrose on her way to see me thanks Chris25

Ordered the pigs in blankets, I thought 15 organic ones for 3.50 from Abel & Cole wasn't bad.

VfMmeplease thanks for the reminder about foil
