Cheap tins of sweets wanted

Firstly, this may be in the wrong category, so if a moderator/ administrator can put it in a more approppriate (sp) place, I'd be grateful.

OK, I'm looking for some cheap large tins of sweets (in the vein of Quality Street, Roses, Celebrations etc) that I can buy online, preferably using Paypal. I'm thinking in the region of £5 per tin, or cheaper if possible.

    Tesco are doing the big tins at £7.99 each or 2 for £10. You could do an online order buying 6 of them and then use the code that takes £10 off, even allowing for delivery it works out cheap!

    Quality Street were the same price as Roses in Somerfield today....both were 4.99 a large tin, down from 9.99.
  • Sainsburys had celebrations for 4.49 today
    Real men never follow instructions; after all they are just the manufacturer's opinion on how to put something together. :p

    Thanks for the advice, guys, some helpful shops here. I think I may be doing as *debbie* suggested, buy in bulk, then use voucher codes for extra savings. Plus, clubcard points are a bonus with Tesco.
