I know of someone doing very nicely from baby milk at the moment , seems odd to me, but it is exactly what we all do with other types of items isn't it?

Well a few months ago I booked a delivery during a baby event and had 8 tins delivered the first week and again the second week.

As the last one had almost finished I booked a delivery last week and could only order 2 tins.

The limit of 2 per order/customer is a manufactor limit not a shop one. The reason is the Chinese would buy them fill a suitcase and ship it home

hi


dont worry its ex-pat shopping....

its for brits who want to buy goods from tesco, asda etc but they dont ship worldwide, so ebayers do it..

i first stumbled across this when i spotted a bag of monster munch for £6...lol

try searching mars bars, monster munch, heinz beans etc and you will see what i mean
