Yes Yes! disco I mentioned Flex, it was fantastic wasn't it?

discophile · 17/04/2012 20:48

It was the smell of it! I used to use loads of conditioner so that my hair would really smell nice.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 17/04/2012 20:49

You can still buy Flex

fluffiphlox · 17/04/2012 20:49

Vidal Sassoon shampoo, is another

KenDoddsDadsDog · 17/04/2012 20:52

Oh god yes in the brown bottle! It smelled of marzipan

discophile · 17/04/2012 20:55

Thanks. I'll try it and see if it's any good. It has to smell the same. Sadly, recipes/formulations often get mucked about with over the years Angry

Proudnscary · 17/04/2012 20:58

Oh my god Flex! Reminds me of my nan, circa 1985. Come on, the smell was rank!

My product sob story: Fendi Palazzo. The only perfume I really loved, took me bloody ages to find one I liked and they discontinued. Italian bastards.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 17/04/2012 20:59

I've thought of another - Boots Catarrh Cough Mixture. It was basically creosote-flavoured syrup and I loved it!!

Iceland sell multipacks of Wheat Crunchies iirc.

Peanut Butter won the KitKat Chunky competition thing and they're due to be rolled out pretty soon going by the Facebook KitKat page - there's something going on today to find out the location of the first shop stocking them and get one of the first 100 bars. On a similar note I saw my first ever Reeces advert in a bus stop today. My face was like this Grin We don't sell enough peanut butter based confectionery by far, the US has some lovely stuff Envy

"my nan, circa 1985" I am old.

emmalala · 17/04/2012 21:20

lucky charm cereal! Ok, so you can still get it at a disgusting price, bring it back to tesco! and those savoury crisp things that were fish and chip flavoured

Mandy2003 · 17/04/2012 22:25

OMG - the Vidal Sassoon shampoo! I loved it so much I rationed it carefully and by the time I needed more it no longer existed Angry

Pandygirl · 17/04/2012 22:29

Ralph Lauren "Blue" for women, I wore it for years.....

Yep to the Vidal Sassoon, shampoo, (I seem to remember you had 3 bottles rather than just shampoo & conditioner).

Texan bars - because a mans gotta chew what a mans gotta chew - I loved them.

blapbird · 17/04/2012 22:32

Mars delight I used to eat 2 a day! Blush

blapbird · 17/04/2012 22:34

Charles Worthington shampoo in ellipse shaped bottle orange, it still exists but it doesn't smell half as nice any more it was gorgeous

Bird's Hot Crunch Puddings

They were a massive treat. Available in banana or chocolate flavour. I think they did a mint one Christmas, one year.

parques · 17/04/2012 22:42

Novo bars

parques · 17/04/2012 22:42

Novo bars - yum

MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic · 17/04/2012 22:45

Oh god, hot crunch puddings - that takes me back to having dinner at my best friends on a Wednesday night. We'd sit on her bed, watch crap and finish off with those. They were lush.

SecretNutellaFix · 17/04/2012 22:49

Thank God- someone else remembers them! For ages I thought I had imagined them!

TerraNotSoFirma · 17/04/2012 23:48

Hot crunch puddings! I loved those.

I'm getting a bit misty eyed and nostalgic reading this. (Or is it just making me feel old?)

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 18/04/2012 09:29
