Do you have a biscuit tin?

Is that still a thing?

I remember having a biccie from my nans tin but it was a gamble on the being soft or stale.

I think I'd quite like some biccies in a tin.

Anyone got a recommendation for a decent one that keeps bourbons fresh?

I have a munchies box. It houses biscuits and crackers.

I’ve got three. One for ginger biscuits, one for Rocky and Club biscuits and one for generic biscuits such as hob nobs and chocolate digestives. The generic tin goes down quickly due to my teenage son 😬.

I have a tin and two ceramic jars, but they very rarely have biscuits in them nowadays.

Having a biscuit tin is pointless…If you eat enough biscuits to need a biscuit tin to store them, they’ll never last long enough to actually need one.

Of course! How else do you keep biccies fresh

Yes. A relative bought me one from M&S a few Christmasses back and it always has a digestive for dunking in the tea.

Yes - an emma Bridgwater one.
