  • So basically my office has a snack shack which sells crisps and chocs to the staff. Someone goes and buys the mars etc when they are on offer at £1 for 4pk...then sell at 25p each. Its not meant to make profit, just provide some snacks etc. Anyway, In the interests of fair competition, i want to start a Health Shack...so need some ideas of little snacks (30p and under) that can be kept on the sideboard in the office kitchen...? So far i have:

    Little bags of unsalted nuts or dried fruit
    Snack-a-Jacks
    Natural Cereal bars

    Thats where my ideas ended...:( anyone?

    You awesome person! :)

    I'll be getting some serious amounts of pasta tomorrow! ;)

    Be careful with the Pasta tomorrow Jimmy. Get it in the morning as some of M's offers update on Mondays at midday.

    Hi all, hope everyones well! Haven't really did much sensible ;) shopping the last while for one reason or another but was in Ts tonight and see they have promotions at all the till "get a price promise for £1.99 and win a prize" Just wondering if anyone has heard of this and if the prizes are worth winning? (Not that i'm thinking I could manipulate this of course! ;))

    This is Price Promise Bingo, i think most stores do it, (2 local to me do anyways:D) I have never won it myself but have seen a customer in front of me win, they won a bottle of wine and a and a gift voucher and the SA got an envelope, not sure what was in the envelope though.
    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.
