    I'm going to miss Caramac, but I think it's declined because it was so hard to find. I know of only one shop in this town that sold it.

    As a child one of my favourites was Alibi biscuits, a dark mint chocolate covered biscuit which I think had diagonal strips on the foil 'paper'. They must have disappeared in the 1970s.
    I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

    Fashion on the Ration 2025: Fabric 2, men's socks 3, Duvet 7.5, 2 t-shirts 10, men's socks 3, uniform top 0, hat 0, shoes 5 = 30.5/68
    2024: Trainers 5, dress 7, slippers 5, 2 prs socks (gift) 2, 3 prs white socks 3, t-shirts x 2 10, 6 prs socks: mostly gifts 6, duvet set 7.5 = 45.5/68 coupons
    20.5 coupons used in 2020. 62.5 used in 2021. 94.5 remaining as of 21/3/22

    I really miss toffo, wonder why it was discontinued. 
  • Rileys dark chocolate Teacakes (toffee with coconut) coated in dark chocolate. Hard liquorice is hard to come by now. Also the bassets boxes with a pipe watch Catherine wheel in also becoming scarce.

    Does anyone else remember and miss Fry's Tiffin bar?

    And if I can't have that back, how about the 1d Cadbury's milk chocolate bar at the original size and the original price?!

    It did, yes. I think  must have switched to the Picnic bar when it disappeared and then the Yorkie with raisins and biscuit, Not that I lived on sweets, you understand!
