To think this is a genius idea?!

Does anyone actually like quality street ? I personally prefer less but better quality ie hotel chocolat

Amazing idea, am going to have to do this at Christmas but I can't see which stores will be doing it?

It’s a fun idea.

It’s £12 a tin though......

It would have been; a couple of years ago. Before all chocolate turned to 💩

If only my dad was still here. He loved the purple ones, a tin with nothing else and his name on it would have made him so happy.

It's genius till you read that you can't just fill it with one and you need to have at least four out of the selection. They are being unreasonable to not let people fill it full of green triangles (the best one )

You have to choose four? . That certainly takes the genius out of it.

That's because there would be loads of brown toffees and coconut ones left.

Nestle chocolate is crap anyway, filled with yucky palm oil like the rest of it.

probably because people would just get a tin full of the green ones... (me)

Would have been a good idea some years ago when it was actually made of chocolate, I miss Quality Street, but palm oil and sugar just doesn't have the same appeal, not had them since they were ruined.

Then they should stop filling the tins with the crap they know full well people wouldn’t choose.

Fine in theory but since chocolate has changed, I will be giving it a miss.

Would be cheaper to buy the same size tines at £5 each and throw out the ones you don't like...

It's time Quality Street and Roses went back to nice chocolate in big tins, produced only for Christmas if need be. I would pay £25 for a genuinely large tin of how they used to be, rather than a fiver for a shallow plastic box of horrible waxy crap.

It really would be like the old days when a tin of Quality Street was THE Christmas treat.

I think the tins are bigger? 1.5kg?

I could be wrong...

coveting

haha I just typed the same thing! Missed your comment

Quality Street are grim these days. I agree with PP about a proper tin with proper chocolates inside. I would pay more for that. However, I do prefer quality over quantity.

I love quality street, this would be ace for me.

Orange creams, purple ones, toffee penny (or maybe toffee finger) strawberry cream.

When Sainsburys did the lego cards, FB had groups specifically for local trading...
Maybe we need Quality Street trading groups?? I'd happily swap all my green triangles for orange creams!! ;-)

Quality street is ghastly. Didn’t realise it still exists.

For £12 you could get a box of Leonidas fresh cream Belgian chocolates.

I agree with the others who said it would have been a good idea when the chocolate of quality street actually tasted like chocolate. Now it's all waxy and slimy :(

Orange creams for green triangles? are you deranged?
Green triangles, big purple ones, orange crisp and toffee cups (small squishy ones).

I prefer Roses anyway, but agree that either way the plastic tins are tiny and less appealing than the old larger tins of proper chocolate.
