I'm assuming you're going in for the kill as far as the pickled onions are concerned? :rofl:

With regard to tea bags have you tried Aldi standard strong round, always bought Yorkshire Gold when we first got here but found these and felt they were nearly as good and at just over $2 a box they don't hit the bank account too hard.

They had loads of jars of mints last time as well, kept me going at work for months :D

I don't buy the teabags, I just spot them for SC :D

Ok went to Aldi this morn, got 2 boxes of Yorkshire Gold tea, $6.99 for a box of 40, a tad expensive, hence why I only picked up the two. :sneaky:

2 packs of choccie limes, 2 boxes of dolly mixtures and a packet of chocolate digestives.

That was my lot, people in there were going nuts. :rolleyes:

The pickled onions are Australian pickled onions:eek: :lol: felt right ripped off.

They had the biscuits, none of the sweets, except dolly mixtures and the soup, plus some mushy peas.
