Must try harder!

I saw the triple choc ones in Aldi & even picked them up.  Then I made the mistake of looking at how many calories they were each.  229.  So I did a very quiet swear & put them back.......  Then picked up the Bramley apple ones at over 40 calories less each.  I know I should have walked away.  But my son loves HXBs so saves me 40 cals & him 120.  We are after all both on a diet.  Anyway choc makes me cough!!

No Waitrose near here & the nearest Sainbugs is so far away that anything you buy is that much more because of the petrol to get there & I'm stuck in greater Manchester (until I win the lottery).

@badmemory - i don't know what happened to my post as half of it seems to be missing!  I said i used to go to a big Sainz near Heaton Park (near the motorway junction with Middleton) .  I like Sainz and their home and clothes ranges and they had a big range at that one in Mcr

Aldi do the chocolate versions 😁 thanks @BalanceBy50

I could walk to our Waitrose it's less than 2 miles or about 2.5 the scenic route along the canal. There's also a Tesco in the town.
We have Sainsbury's Morrisons Aldi Lidl Asda marks all within a 5 mile radius plus co ops spars etc etc.

I always am a couple of days behind so conversations have moved on massively before i get chance to comment however not today 😊 Aldee also sell Triple Chocolate Hot Cross Buns and they are amazing!  Its at least 20miles for me to a Waitrose I never shop there! DH doesn't like them but me and my 2 boys are obsessed with them so its a fight for the 4th one in the pack!

2 at once is the way to win that fight 😁

I used to live within an easy drive of all the supermarkets, but no longer! 

Bramley apple ones sound amazing!

Thank you for the free kindle suggestion, downloaded.

I have to say that the gluten free HCBs are really awful which saves me from myself.  The co-op seem obsessed with HCB flavour on everything though.  HCB fudge and HCB easter egg anyone?

Ewwwwgh redo no thanks. You will have to have extra Easter eggs.

If that was us I would buy 3 packs to save the arguments 😉

I hope it’s good @redofromstart.
