    I totally forgot to mention, when I was in MrL today, I went for a quick look on the 'Food Jumble Aisle' - the one that has all the branded offers WIGIG, and the 'leftovers' from the country promotion events.  Stuff is rarely ever priced on this aisle in our store.  Today there were some dried beans, called 'Carioca' (I think - having researched they are brazilian beans that are pinto or pinto-like).  The bag was 1kg in weight.  Anyone got any ideas how much these cost?  I suspect I may have to wait, on the off chance they get YS'd at some point, but I just wondered if anyone else's store is better at pricing things up.

    @Greying_Pilgrim - our local international store has bags of beans for between 2.50 and 5 pounds - I have no clue why they have that price range when they are all 1kg!
