    I get the Lidl fair trade ones. Not strong strong, but drinkable enough, and the fair trade bit swings it for me.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I am quite happy to drink the Lidl or Aldi own brand tea which comes in the red box - and I drink LOTS of tea like you. I can't taste the difference but the price speaks for itself.

    I buy Yorkshire but try to get them when they are on offer.

    Good for you Ruby, better than that foreign rubbish.

    Another vote for Lidl Knightsbridge ones (£1.99 for 160) .

    Drink gallons of tea here and both me and OH like these, plus my mum who stopped by for a cuppa (doesn't drink a lot of tea these days) and remarked how nice they were.

    Not keen on Typhoo myself, and drink PG Tips at work. I have tried Sainsburys Basics on recommendation here but really wasn't keen.

    According to this post on Hot Uk Deals you can get cashback on Tetley tea bags. So, depending where you shop, they'll cost between £1.36 and £2.10 for 160.

    Personally I prefer Sainsbury's Basics bags. If I want a strong cup I just use two bags.

    I can drink tea for England :D, and my favourite tea bags are Tetley.

    Shame you don't have a Morrison's or Asda, as their own brand tea bags are nice if there's no deals on the Tetley.

    We buy Asda's own tea bags in the red box and they are lovely.
