Blocks are about 8.4p each
Stripes 2.5p each both from Bookers but you have to make sure you buy them in the right packets. The tubs work out more expensive.
Then I get Maoam Fruttis from poundland. Free delivery if you spend £50. They are 2p each.

I use 1 x block
2x stripe
2x Fruttis
17.5p plus the pot.

Hi Andy, good idea to get the little 'uns involved. My 3 love packing Maoams too - I use 2 blocks and 2 stripes. One does the blocks, one the stripes, and the other puts the lid on. Not sure how much longer I'll be able to get away with paying them with sweets, they're getting too clever for their own good ;)
