Hi,

There are plenty of options.

As richard says below.

Deff go to places like home bargains and the £1 shop. Went in the other day got bags of 16 manlow love hearts for £1 a bag. Absolute bargain, also you could look at things like viscounts, you can fit 3 in a box, mini chedders at my home bargains are 10p a packet at the minute, and you could even try stuff like mini popcorns.

Hope this helps a bit.

Chris

I think they do leon,

As everyone will agree on the forum it's about location, and what type of market you are trying to hit.

Personally i prefer my method as the prices are the same all the time for the stuff i get, where the pringles can be hit and miss for offers ect, and at times there has been difficulty in getting them and differant flavours because of the sale of the company ect.

Cheers

thats why im thinking of doing it, it is a bit difficult to get pringles regular at the right price also i can only get 4 flavours.
