It has everything from penny sweets to biscuits to chocolate bars. I will buy you one bag/bar/pack/item up to the value of £2.

What do you pick?

White mice please. But the creamy ones, not the inferior waxy ones that the garden centre sells.

IrishCream123 · 27/05/2020 07:42

Cola cubes (with a chewy middle) please

I don’t have a particularly sweet tooth but can I have two, please?

Liquorice Catherine wheels. A packet of five occasionally find their way into my basket and then we fight over the last one.

Chocolate Turkish delight.

@00100001 oooh, it's tough, but it'll have to be the Green & Blacks Butterscotch bar. Please and thank you. Grin

You must be a sweetie amateur, Cherry.

The pros amongst us would buy TWO packs, and have one in a secret stash and graciously go "No, no, darling, you have the last one, I know how much you like them"

Well as I worked on woolies sweet counter as a Saturday girl in 1967 I loved the fresh maltesers, came in a 26 lb box And I soon put paid to a few slack handfuls.
Next up was the chocolate dragees and chocolate brazils.
Now my more sophisticated palate ( and with limiting gf and df) it would be bendicks chocolate mints and valor dark chocolate with almendradas..I bring back 4 packs from Tenerife usually

Bearlyclearly · 27/05/2020 15:34

I presuming it's one a day as surely a pack of sweets can't be expected to last more than a day so today's choice would be jelly tots.

If not can you name change?

RoseyLentil · 27/05/2020 17:48

Mmmm dark chocolate 🍫 please
Thank you 😊

SorryIWasntABetterWife · 27/05/2020 18:37

Monsters! Where are all of the sherbet lemons?! 😂

ChangeThePassword · 27/05/2020 18:48

We were saving them for you!

CherryPavlova · 27/05/2020 19:31

Sherbet lemons are awful. They take the roof off your mouth.

Liquorice Catherine Wheels it must be. Unwound slowly and the jelly saved until the end. In our courting days we used to unwind them and race each other to the middle. We weren’t bothered about the jelly then.

Lordfrontpaw · 27/05/2020 20:03

No it’s cola cubes that rip the skin off the top of your mouth! I think there’s a pineapple version too.

I do like a soor ploom.
