Sorry guys, I ask every year.

I haven't seen any this year yet - have you?

Thanks!

No!

The pound shop usually has them though and I’ve not been there for ages so maybe there?

ChittyChittyBoomBoom · 21/12/2019 08:41

Yes, I saw some in Poundland the other day.

BalloonSlayer · 21/12/2019 08:44

Aargh I didn't see any in Poundland but I was not looking specifically for them, will be cross with myself if they have them and I missed my chance.

Our garden centre often does them but it has closed for Christmas this year (what? a garden centre shut at Christmas how can this be? Universe rocks on its foundations!)

Tesco
B and M

AutumnGlitterBall · 21/12/2019 08:44

Tesco have them in the red packaging. I’ve had about five packs already this month 🙊

peachypetite · 21/12/2019 08:45

Tesco had some yesterday near me.

ShristmasChopper · 21/12/2019 08:46

B&M for a quid or £8 on Amazon!!

NellNorth · 21/12/2019 08:52

Do you mean the wee ones for cake decorating? Lakeland do them, but they’re extortionate- £5 for this wee tub

The Range

PathOfLeastResitance · 21/12/2019 08:59

Do you mean the ones that are arranged in a circle and you can argue with your sisters (obviously only when we were younger..... not when we are in 30’s and 40’s...... oh no, not us....) about who gets the one in the middle?
If it’s that one, they had them in my Poundland yesterday. I bought 3 packs so we could all have the middle one. I might actually miss the row!

BalloonSlayer · 21/12/2019 09:03

Yes those ones Path.

I will try Tesco today, Poundland if I am near one as well.

Nellnorth those are vv expensive but they do look yum though.

(I've been in bloody Lakeland too! I would have bought those if I'd seen them)

These are for allergic to milk DC who loves them. I like them too of course but they are mainly for him. He might say it wouldn't be Christmas without them. Never mind the ££££££££££££ I have spent on other stuff for him.

Co-op have them

AdalindMeisner · 21/12/2019 09:35

We got some in Asda.

toomuchfaster · 21/12/2019 09:37

I bought several packs in the Range last week.

Ninkanink · 21/12/2019 09:39

I bought some at Morrison’s.

Sleepysquirrelin · 21/12/2019 09:43

Saw them in Waitrose i think

buckeejit · 22/12/2019 10:16

Oh, now I want some 😔 going to have to go to an actual shop again

maidenover · 22/12/2019 10:19

Tesco, they were in the Christmas aisle rather than just with the sweets.

Ninkanink · 22/12/2019 11:31

I bought mine in the baking section.

sueelleker · 22/12/2019 13:20

I think Holland and Barrett sell them.

sakura06 · 22/12/2019 13:27

Oh wow, I love those!

Rowanberries · 22/12/2019 13:37

Just been on a mammoth hunt for these as DH loves them. Sainsbury's, Asda, Tesco, Waitrose, Lidl and Aldi were a no. Eventually poundland came up trumps. They were right by the tills, nearly missed them.

ShatnersWig · 22/12/2019 13:44

You're leaving it far too late. They aren't as common as in years ago - which you know, if you have to ask every year where you can find them. All you need do is Google for orange and lemon slices at the beginning of January and it will tell you which shops are still doing them, then go and get them immediately. Leaving it this late is always going to make them harder to find.

Northernsoullover · 22/12/2019 13:48

I do like those! I'm also fancying some
