YANBU, that's shocking! Thought my newsagents were a rip off at the price of 70p for monster munch. Not that I buy alot of crisps o_0

Our local Spar is hideously expensive. Their chocolate especially. But they sell Tomato Ketchup Snaps so i have to go there. Grin

I'd be amazed if there wasn't a price tag, cuffuffle.

The village will be up in arms.

lordy lord Shock

i remember them first going on sale, we had a promotion at our school and we all got a free packet of the yellow ones, they were much bigger then too

i remember crips being 9p, then you could get 2 sweets with your change from 10p or a big bag of sweets for 10p

Sparklingbrook · 08/03/2012 11:29

We had a 10p mixture at the sweet shop with or without bubbly. Fruit salads and Black Jacks. Grin
