You’ve done well Ossie, that’s a really stingey breakfast though.

Those Skinny bars are lovely, I buy them and like the mint ones best. I tried the fruit and nut ones last week and they were good too, had the coconut ones once and loved them but haven’t been able to find them locally since!

Thank you Jo.
LOL, yes, Mrs O has ring-fenced all the green minty ones for herself. I think my favourite is the orange flavoured one, which I like to eat alongside a plate of orange segments.
Asda were selling them at £1.20 but I did find them in Aldi for 99p and I notice Asda has price-matched them since, now charging £1. Aldi (typically) only sells a limited range.
Never seen the coconut variety! :lol: I'll keep my eyes open.

If you’ve got a Home Bargains nearby they have a good selection. That was where I found the coconut ones.
Haven’t tried the orange ones but will do!

Ah, we have a brand spanking new Home Bargains in town, opened about a month ago, on the same trading estate as Aldi! :Hi: I haven't been in there yet but I'll try and have a look on Sunday.

The Aldi's only about a couple of years old itself - I think they've both moved in there on that side of town because that's where our 900+ new houses are going to be ......

This is the first of the various developments which is currently being built:

Social housing? I don't think so .... :|

Kaz, do you put them in the fridge to make the chewier and longer lasting? :lol:

I found the coconut ones in the new big Home Bargains in Stafford last night, and while I was in the queue I noticed the woman being served had one of these :lol:
