Candy kittens
Mango sorbet
Sofritto in a jar, or the fresh mix in a packet that you can add to tomatoes - makes spag bol and chillis taste amazing
Their essential microwave mashed potato
Cat litter - it’s so cheap!
They’re also the only supermarket near me that does the lactose free butter, milk, cream, etc that my eldest needs.
