    Mince pies are the work of Satan.

    Quite possibly! I am starting to get chubby and I put this down to my December Baileys-and-mince-pie-diet.
    No man is worth crawling on this earth.

    So much to read, so little time.

    In Lidl this morning and 12 mince pies were only 49p I didn't buy them because it's the sort of thing I class as a luxury item and I only buy what I need not something because it's reduced although I do buy reduced items that will make a meal.
    Someone please tell me what money is

    Think of it as dessert for 4p / serving.

    Morrisons 6-pack Mince Pies, to clear, 13p each box. 4 Boxes straight to freezer.

    2.1p/serving and that's me sorted to about April ;)

    As @Rosa_Damascena -- I view them as interchangeable with cake/tarts/crumpets as a dessert item. They are only "luxury goods" if they were full price ;)

    I had a pack of 6 Greggs mince pies and 3 Kipling mince pies, the other 3 are going in the bin. I can't bear the thought of eating another TBH!
