I’ve just ordered 2kg, yes 2kg of sweets from Amazon!

[ShiftyOwl]

Usually I might grab a bag of sweets when I pop to the shops or fill the car up.
I’ve not eaten any sweets since mid March and so I’ve just ordered a mahoosive bulk bag of Chewy Sweets from Amazon.
What is wrong with me!
They are due to arrive on Friday, what’s the betting that they will be gone by Monday.......
We are a family of two.

Has anyone else ordered something that you would never ever ordinarily order?

I feel sick already and they’ve not arrived yet 😂

I got salted caramel twix on my Tesco order in Manchester for those asking. I wasn't that fussed with them prefer the white ones. Off to look at retro sweets now and also little haribo jelly baby things

Everyone let’s rejoice in our sweets it keeps us going.

We had 3 tubs of B&J ice cream in our last online order. They had to be eaten on the same day to make space in the freezer for the cat's food...

And we wonder why covid is rampaging through Western society - this.

I don't think it's because people are buying sweets. We'll just stop buying anything but bread and let the economy be even more fucked than it already is, shall we?

Oh god you’ve all made me crave sweets now!! (minus the rat poison ones... ) Perfect for scoffing when I’ve finally put the kids to bed, don’t know why I hadn’t thought of it. Off to search the internet now 🐽

My lovely work colleagues sent me these yesterday as I'm off sick

You should’ve banned from mumsnet for posting that link 😂 I have just gone and had a look, that’s me going up a few pounds in the next couple of weeks.

I ordered 5 multipacks of crisps on my shopping order because the week before none of the multipacks I ordered turned up this week all 5 turned up

Covid is spreading because people eat sweets?

Before covid19 was even a thing, DP decided to buy a 3kg bag of the lemon refreshers. We too are craving sweet goodness during lockdown so I desperately don’t want to click the link in the OP...

I got a deal from a cinema supplier place. I got over 2 kgs of popcorn, 2 huge bags of nachos with dips and 2 massive bags of chips with a bag of lollies and the popcorn boxes etc. £20 bargain. We have had plenty of movie nights!

Fill your boots though, ladies - your greed is way more important.

Where are people ordering wholesale sized things from other than Amazon. I am craving sweets and my favourites are the candy letters and mini marshmallows.

I bought 3kg of chocolate peanuts quite early on in lockdown, we are still working our way through them!

Perhaps you should try eating some sweets, Agnes, instead of spending all your time apparently sucking lemons. It might sweeten you up or perhaps you enjoy the misery?

Best. Excuse. Ever 😂😂

I’m happy thanks, I just don’t suffer fools gladly.

How unfortunate that you have to live with yourself then.

so quick.

Interesting you’ve only chosen to focus on the parts of my posts you feel you can respond to.

We have done the same but with salted mixed nuts.
I will be turning into a squirrel (a very obese one) 🤣

@AgnesNaismith
You are on the wrong thread.
This one is about sweets.
..and mixed nuts....

Some comments are too stupid to be worthy of attention.
