I bought a jar of Heywards pickles yesterday ($7) for Christmas, something for the husband (can't say in case he's reading) and will be going back for Taytos, Club Orange and Chocolate Kimberly. I don't care that we're in Australia, these things much be had at Christmas. Fancy? No

Bi-Lo in Mount Warren Park (South of Brisbane, near Beenleigh) has family sized packets of Minstrels that were $4 reduced to $1 for clearance.

We're on our 2nd lot of 10 packets we bought ...

Dunno if ALL Bi-lo's, but worth if a look if you like your European choccie! ...

Re: Recent purchases thread

From ebay, a Sunbeam EM6910 espresso machine and a EM0480 Grinder for $250. I have been meaning to get a machine for ages and couldn't pass this opportunity up. The espresso machine came recommended by the coffeesnobs forum, and the grinder isn't too bad. Looking forward to a long, caffine fueled weekend.
