Gosh Squeeky - great value there! Can I ask where you bought it?

Sorry, forgot to say. I bought it in my village co-op. It had a proper label all printed up with the price reduction rather than a stuck on "Reduced" label - so there's a possibility that they may be available in other local co-ops.

There was only the one on the shelf when I bought mine - but it is such a good buy that as soon as my organic box is delivered this morning I shall be going back to see if they have re-stocked with them.

Hi all,

We've just added a collection of Organic Food related threads to our Indexed Collections Sticky

There are threads on organic foods, growing your own, and the chicken and the egg

That should keep you all busy reading for the next hour or two

I'm so proud of myself. My son has just come back from the Co-op spending some of his pocket money on sweets. He complained about the price of the gummy bears, he said "I wasn't paying £1.46 for a little packet. I bought these instead, 56p for the same size bag.

I must be teaching him something after all

i went the other way monday night and went on an M&S purge bough 2 ready meals (naughty naughty) one was aubergine bake yumm and the other was potato dauphinouise and they where both gorgeous worth the wait for it.......£6 i paid for both (may have been a bit less) i know it was extravagent but i was feeling really crap and wanted some rich, comforting, ready made food. it was well worth the price and cheaper than the tescos finest equivalent.

Hah! Beat you here by hours and hours! The chocolate cake is on you

Cor blimey! I hope you didn't beat yourself up over a yummy treat - we all need them now and again.

Well I got myself out today, and visited the Market at Bury st Edmunds.

I shall be jam making tomorrow as I bought 6lbs of apricots for £2.50and some lovely raspberries and english strawberries.

There was also a stall selling produce from 'Jimmy's farm' so I got some of their sausages and shall report back tommorrow and let you know if they were worth the extra.

large espresso and a large slice of strawberry cheesecake please waiter, Ive just had dinner and could do with a light snack.

squeaky

No such things as light snacks here I've got a "light" suet pud with marmalade on the go at the moment and when it's all gone I shall be making a rhubarb crumble.

B St E... I hadn't realised you were so close. Just twenty minutes up the road from me.

actually Sqeaky I'm in a well know village between stowmarket and Bury, we shall be having our annual street fair on Monday. Will you be there. I shall be wearing my safety pin and shall probably be found loiterin with intent, at one of the watering holes. This is one annual occasion I shall not be very MSE as I shall be taking 3 children and If I remember last year it cost me lots.


Still it's good fun.

Not sure I can manage any suet pud right now but the rhubarb crumble sound promising.

squeaky

I shan't be there, so there'll be no need to hide in corners The pud was delicious! Two helpings left
