thank you :rotfl: totally annoyed as i could not remember what they were called ,

mine are simple cheats version slightly different to traditional ones i did them once when i did not have the right ingredients and everyone like them with a lighter sponge instead of the frangipan.

i just line bun trays with shop pastry. and add teaspoon of h/m jam then make ordinary sponge and add almond oil then bake then ice and add cherry

for proper frangipane mix the below ingredients together

• 60g (2½oz) unsalted butter, softened
• 60g (2½oz) caster sugar
• 1 medium free-range egg, beaten
• 60g (2½oz) ground almonds
• ½tsp almond extract

Don't rush out for the Mars bars, they've been reported as £1.56 elsewhere.

If you have a Game store nearby, and a CeX too, then Game will beat the CeX price on each item by £1.

Have a look on the Game website for details.

Thanks Biker. I traded 3 of my boys games the other week, was planning to take 2 to CeX, and 1 to Game to get the best prices, but went past Grainger Games and thought I'd see what they offered, they were lower, but when I was walking away offered to better the prices, I only got an extra 80p or so for all 3, but it saved me going to the other shops so took the cash.

I didn't know Game did this, so good to know.

Helping hands back at T

I have 6/40 and 3/20 so far

Not sure how true this is but i was told that These are now continuous, but still random, i received one the other day and the SA said that they are here for good now, totally random but if you use one then you are more likely to get another one at the end of your transaction.
