    I don't know which are cheapest, but there are loads of online retailers that specialise in these.

    This one has clearance sales that might be worth picking at:

    Hi Laura

    can't help with everything - but Morrisons do miniature jams / marmalade 25p a pot or 5 for £1.
    I am sure most supermarkets do the mini marshmallows in the cake baking aisle.
    Sainsburys do a variety of mini xmas puds - super luxury, sticky toffee and other - they are buy 3 get 1 free at the moment.
    You could try the local off licences for the baileys / tia maria - or you can usually get sets with a glass and sometimes a couple of chocs for about £3 when the xmas pressies come out in tesco / sainburys

    a local offie had quarter size bottles of spirits for the same price as numerous miniatures sites were charging for a bottle not much bigger than tour average thimble :rolleyes:

    also, the alcohol section of the food hall in house of frasier near me sells reasonably priced miniatures, so might be worth investigating if you live near a good department store
