I'm just popping down to the 1980s/1990s corner shop. Anybody want anything?

Think I'm going to get a raspberry Panda Pop, a Cadbury Taz bar and hopefully they'll have the latest issue of Sugar magazine.

My god I used to love these! I remember them also being 10p 😋 in the red wrapper with the silver foil.

Bliss magazine and a Marathon bar please.

Lostinidea · 18/11/2024 22:47

Does anyone remember these? Like a dairy milk in KitKat form. They were so good, don't know why they stopped doing them.

A bottle of Mad Dog 20/20 and a bottle of lemon Hooch. I'm going to a party....

Here’s a thing, it was never called Mad Dog. Someone told me this a while ago and I refuted it asking why everyone called it Mad Dog if it wasn’t, but it wasn’t!

Anyway, can I please have some of the stuff that was even cheaper that Mad Dog and didn’t even have a name. It was bright blue and had a picture of a banana on the label.

You couldn’t pick me up a fuse bar, a 20p mix (that was full of sweets) and some Opal fruits could you? Thanks so much!

Cadbury wildlife bar for me please

Is that the one where the animal is moulded into the chocolate? I used to howl if my mum brought me those as I didn't want to eat a lion or rhino and contribute to the extinction crisis!

Cadbury wildlife bar for me please

Oh yes, me too.

The taste of them after they have been in the freezer for a while. And the snap! Also do the same with easter eggs (always cadbury too).

Oganesson118 · 18/11/2024 23:09

I don’t know if someone already asked for these (but I don’t really want to share anyway!) but could I please have a can of Tab, a J17 and a Sugar magazine and a Maverick bar?

Youhaveyourhandsfull · 18/11/2024 23:12

Quarter of pineapple cubes, one of those new fancy Solero ice creams, and 10 B & H please.
