    Thanks for that - I haven't seen any in Bramingham Park (and was told they weren't selling them there). I had to get mine in London in the end (and was surprised there were any left)! I went to Sainsbury's Bramingham Park, Tesco Arndale and my brother went to Tesco Skimpot Road, Asda Luton and Asda Dunstable and there were none in any of those stores.

    If I pass there at the weekend and see any, I'll get as many as I can carry and send them to those who want them.

    The Luton Sainsbury's in Dunstable Road (Bury Park) has these in stock on the aisle end promo displays.

    There were about a dozen delivery boxes on display.

    I'd blame the supermarkets - they decide what they want to sell, and where. They must have mistakenly thought that there wouldn't be much demand in your area :confused:

    I know you don't want to pay for one on eBay but I honestly would keep an eye on the auctions as prices are bound to come down - there are loads on there and soon the next novelty will come along.

    I do agree that it is bad that they have told you that the promotion has ended but it is still on their website though. I'd be p'd off too, I got a similar reply from Tesco about two weeks after I wrote to them.

    On a different note, I must admit that this was a very good idea on PG Tips' part... I bought two packs, so I had 320 tea bags and I don't even like tea :beer: I'm sure there are plenty more like me as well!

    So whos fault is it now not a single supermarket in my area appear to have any in stock, I have seracehd them all for weeks. I blame PG tips and now they lost a customer, and I hope that they are not in the position as I am of telling my kids particularly my sick daughter that she cant have one. I refuse point blank to feed the frenzy of greedy people who frequent Ebay whos only motive is profit.

    I also note that PG tips claim the offer is over, yet its still on there web site.

    Sainsburys at Gallagher Retail Park outside Cheltenham has decent stocks at the moment - they are situated by the pet food at the end of the freezer aisle.

    And I bought a surplus one today so may be able to help out someone in an area where none are to be had.
