I NEED TIM TAMS!!!!! [/QUOTE]

Caramel ones are my favourite! Plain ones are just the same as Penguin biscuits!

Maybe you could ask some kind soul to bring some back for you!

Good luck!

What was I looking for in the biscuit aisle I hear you asking.

Well I was reliably informed that the famous Australian delicaly Tim Tams were available in Tescos. Obviously only in larger stores. The Isle of Man store is probably not the largest of the Tescos store and therefore doesnt stock all the lines that other store do. Tim Tams being on the list of items that do not necessarily need to be stocked.

Disappointing I must say, it looks like I may have to wait until I laned in Australia before I try the much sought after Tim Tam. Unless I fly Quantas of course which I am told sometimes have Tim Tams on offer during flights.

The only alternative is to fly to the mainland UK and search for Tim Tams in regional Tesco stores, unless they are available to buy online.

The only other choice is to ask if someone would like to buy me some from their local Tesco and post them to me? PM me if you would like to help me out.

I NEED TIM TAMS!!!!!
Hi, i work for Tescos, so when i go to work tomorrow i will have a look, and ask for you, you could also ask at customer services who should be able to check to see if said product is on file, maybe they can order you some in.

BTW is Tescos the only supermarket that stocks this products? Or is Tescos, your only main supermarket there?
