sorry if this has been posted before, checked but couldn't find anything.

In Iceland yesterday they had 4pints... 2.2 litres of milk at 2 for £2

I think Tescos are only 2 litres

    Yep Iceland has always been the best place to get your milk!

    They used to be £1 per 4 pint container but prices rose recently to summat like £1.15 per 4 pinter.

    There is a current deal to buy 2 x 4 pints for £2 which obviously equates back down to £1 per 4 pint container!

    I just begin to wonder whether I really need to buy 8 pints of milk at once - and the that 2 x 6 pint deal would surely only benefit a large family?

    PS Do people really freeze their milk and is it ok to do so?

    There is a milk war at the moment it is 2 for £2 at Asda but at the moment cheapest is Morrisons with 2 for £1.99

    AND NO whitesofmyeyes,

    4 pints = 2.27 litres, so the 4 pint bottles the main supermarkets and Iceland sell are bigger than the 2 litre offerings. ;)

    Just to point out

    4 Pints = 1.892705892 Liters not 2.2 liters


    Sorry
    just checked and Iceland are 2.272 litres in a container
  • I have started buying tons of milk and freezing it, brilliant at £3 for 2 lots of 6 pints, lets hope it lasts (the offer, not the frozen milk!)
