    Well, that kind of depends.

    At full price it will be 90p, which I think is a lot for a 330ml bottle. At 69p in Boots at the moment, it's not too bad. The 'green tea' version I had tastes like the diet coke you get abroad (in Spain and places in Europe - if you know what I mean), so still quite pleasant and you can't taste the antioxidants :D


    oooh - I do prefer French / Spanish coke - just tastes better - so think i'll give that a go as my friday treat with the good ol' Boots points! Thanks x
  • I went to tesco at lunchtime to try and get stuff for meals but it was only a little tesco and everything was packaged rather than loose so I just bought fruit and a meal for lunch. £7.82 :( and that doesn't include the meals I went there to get. I'm going to go to the big tesco on the way home instead. Normally I probably would have just bought the packed veg but I'm staying with someone for the next few days and extra stuff wont get used by me later so would just be a complete waste.

    I'm having Red onion risotto tonight so I will need to buy onions, carrots, risotto rice, parsley and parmesan. I hope all that will be less than about a fiver. If it isn't I might ditch the parsley as I don't like it that much anyway and my friend will probably have some dry stuff in a jar at hers.

    to sell on babes, i make them anyways but they are kinda as and when, however i have decided to start producing them to sell. The price to make will be 1/2 the price i can sell them at fingers crossed... Thats why there is such a big outlay as buying stuff for your own use is different and i didnt have enough :rolleyes: do yes ~ pap's cards ~ coming soon :whistle:
