    Had a small family get together and bought a bag of Basics Assorted Snacks. 47p for 12 small bags and very "moorish".

    My mom and dad have and they think they are great. Less fat than more expensive brands they say.

    I've just tried the rice pudding. Is it just me or is there very little rice in it? Can't complain at 18p though.

    How much would it cost to add a bit of basics rice to the pudding.

    their mozzarella is also pretty good. I haven't tried the pearls, this was the whole buffalo mazzarella - nice and stringy on top of my lasagne!

    Always get the basics mozzerella for home made pizzas, no complaints at all!
    2010 is the year of bargain shopping! Time to money save, exercise and plan! I like to keep busy :)
