In a T...co supermarket near us they had the big tins of Heroes, etc. The amount of those we have bought ‘for Christmas’ that have never even got to October .....
I must admit I thought of you!Carolbee3 -
@carolbee surely it’s money saving when they are on offer AND you get a nice tin/plastic box for something 😁Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

It would be if I only bought the one......no resistance here from either of us, if they’re in the house...
please send details of houses in your area, where there are no shops and I had to go to the bother of ordering 😀
is your job in chocolate marketing?Carolbee1 -
There are some local shops and a small Mr T’s within about 12 miles, but I WFH so it’s a palaver to go. Online is much easier 😁 I am not in chocolate marketing, but I’m open to offers 🤣
The sad thing is I don’t have the opportunity to stock up on the offers on the Christmas biscuits from m&s ☹️…sighNot all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

We saw the tubs of Christmas chocolates yesterday when the HT and I went to spend our clubcard vouchers on pizza for the freezer. They will not be happening this year I think I bought four or five last year and none of them made it as far as December.
If your back is something muscular that you've pulled you probably have another day or two of it being sore. Fingers crossed for you that it's better soon.2 -

@CRANKY40 is it a waste if you eat them and enjoy them? @Kakiste well done, you were clearly helping the environment there, stopping any chocolate waste 😁Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

I bulk buy chocolate from amazon as well sometimes. I have learned my lesson though and will now be getting it from amazon direct rather than a third party seller. I bought a box of lion bars and they turned out to be foreign ones. I wouldn't mind, but the chocolate was horrible 😖 It was not the same flavour as the UK ones at all. I struggled my way through them though"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee3
