Chocolate oranges for Christmas

Post by Spreckly »

I haven't searched thoroughly, but I haven't seen any chocolate oranges in the shops. Since they were young, my three lads have had a chocolate orange with their Christmas presents.

Last year T....co had a good offer on them, so I wonder if anyone has tracked a good offer down.

Hubby came home with a milk chocolate one and a dark chocolate one a few days ago. He either got them from Tesco or the local Spar garage. I will check with him when he gets home later this evening.

Got my three chocolate oranges. I had some Te...co vouchers which I had been saving up, so they came in handy!

Hi

I might be too late, but we've bought a load to send off as gifts. Asda (or it may have been morrisons!) have been selling them for £1.

I bought some from 'Sadsa' £1 each this week. I'd forgotten - would have been in big trouble if they hadn't had one each!

We don't have a Sasda anywhere near to us, so it would have been an expensive buy!

Stace what is a One Stop? The price sounds like a bargain, I wonder if they are nearing their sell by date?

One Stop is a convenience store a bit like Spar. My eldest son is a manager of one near here and my other son's girlfriend is shift manager at another one! They are open 6-11 every day... they are even open Xmas day 10-2 but the staff are rewarded quite well and it is done on a voluntary basis :-D

If you haven't already found some, Morris&sons are advertising them this week at 2 for £3. Hope you manage to get some and keep up your Christmas tradition.
