    I noticed the same to be true with PaH ( not own brand) biscuits, a couple of years ago.

    Tried to share this on Facebook but no one seems interested.

    Story of my life.

    No doubt there was. Just like the cheapest car insurance quote I got last year turns out to be one of the most expensive this year. They rely on people staying.

    Its not difficult, if you're going to buy something, check the prices. Sometimes things will be cheaper, sometimes more expensive. Cant believe people need to be warned about this. No wonder no-one was interested on Facebook.

    Perhaps one day you'll actually post something helpful or polite on here, you know - contribute something useful?

    I have never been under the illusion that loose items are cheaper than boxed, you pay a premium to choose your exact amount over a pre determined box/bag size.

    I used to get things from these bins regularly when I had pet rats and made up my own food mix for them. The storage space I would have needed for full sized packages would have been impossible for me to manage and a lot would be way past its best and going to waste before being used. I'd buy the amounts I did need and could store from these bins but the cost per kg was always clearly advertised so I knew I wasn't getting the best deal.

    Well considering this was a vent/warning and not a question there was nothing to answer.

    I'm entitled to post my opinion just as much as you are yours. No need to get spiteful just because you don't agree.
