have you ever " gone to iceland" and hat is the point of it

[cod]

freidn and i wer being rude abotu another freind who always goes to iceland for party food

then i htought i dont knwo hwy as i have never been.

what si the point of it and what do you get there that you cant get elsewerhe?

nothing

it is nasty. i've been to the one in my high st and never been back. sells manky fat pizzas and crap food

We don't have frozen food, apart from peas, and I can get those in Asda.

I think the advert with whatsherface, the food looks hideous, heartburn on a plate imo.

cheap innit ??

Always got bogofs and 2 for 1 deals - get a lot for dosh - tastes like poo most of the time though - you get what you pay for

Reykjavik is de rigeur

so what do you gett here i cant get fprzen elsewhere
wodul buy ice cream
frozen part baked bread
prawns and fish

umm and peas

No GM food....

You can buy shit in a dish.

Normal food there (ie not frozen crap) is similarly priced to Tesco/Asda.

So not that cheap.

And they don't do organic nowt, not even milk.

Ours has closed and is turning into an M&S Simply Food. Hurrah!

we bought their millennium cakes which were a great bargain

It's good for freezer basics - sweetcorn, peas etc. Also the party food is good if you've got the girls coming around - and I can walk to it!

Have been to ours once - walked around and came out again - have never been in since!!!!

nothing cod, nothing. Is no USP to Iceland other than it is horrid

aha so what party food do they seli cnat get at tesco or elsewhere?

dop you mean "indian snack selctiosn"

mm looove those

Bamboo you won't be saying that when everything costs three times as much. M&S food is overrated - much prefer waitrose for the nice stuff

those tables loaded with food in the ads are a postmodern take on e blyton's farmhouse teas i think

M & S food overrated !!!! Never !!

I go mainly because I don't drive and I can get it delivered free.

Love M&S. Thats where i go if i need party food....
Waitrose if M&S don't have what i'm looking for.

no b/c i've never lived near one. otherwise, i'd go.

They do really nice spicy chicken things. Proper spicy, not like m&s waving a chilli in the general direction of it.

most of it is rubbish tho. Their indian bits aren't nethign like the real thing.

DH and I went on holiday to Rekjavic (sp?) got sick to death of the 'country not the shop I hope!' and 'Mum's gone to Iceland!' quips.

Grrr.

Our closest ahs closed too, and is reopening as MandS Food. Nicer than Iceland I feel.

when I was at university I knew a boy whose parents were the ones who came up with the 'Mum's gone to Iceland' slogan

they have a lot to answer for I feel
