  • I think they sell Stardrops in Wilkinsons too, we have a cheapie shop in a town about 9 miles away that sells it, so when I go over there I normally buy 6 bottles at a time.
  • Haven`t got either of those shops near me!

    If any of you are gum eaters and buy the little containers.Don`t throw them away, especially the new flip top metal ones...Fill them with the smaller sort of dog treat. Perfect for going on walks,stops your pockets getting scussy and and soon as your dogs spots you going for your pocket...Totally guaranteed to come running back!!
    The Grass may look greener :o but it`s always going to take just as much mowing ;)

    Hi all, hear a lot about stardrops, where can I get hold of them?:confused: Thanks

    Hello freedom2b - I've bought them in Asda and Wilkinsons (according to the website it's also available in Tescos and Semi-Chem). Often to be found around the other cleaning stuff - but you need to really look for them. If they're not somewhere really obvious, you could ask an assistant.

    Hope you manage to find some :D. - Ollie

    I just googled 'who sells stardrops',- childishly pleased to see we, on mse, take top billing.
    Mine is in the clear bottle as on left.

    Hawthorn - thankyou!
    I will use my Bus Pass for free journey, avoiding a vile parking/driving snarl-up for them.
    I've ventured twice in 5 years, but can't stand the Cambridge set-up - don't know why. The store was good; bought massively reduced special teas.

  • I got a jar of sun dried tomatoes in oil for "antipasti" for my Valentine's Day dinner. I am now using up the tomato flavoured seasoned sunflower oil for frying suitable stuff.
    The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life. :)
