There's no Dine In deals at the moment, but not being much of a fan of wine, I'd rather get a chinese down the local with a soft drink, with all the sides, for the same price.

This way I get out of the house, and there's a lot more food in it!

The reason that the adverts are similar is because the ad agency for Coles has employed the same person who wrote etc the ads for Sainsbury

Yeah me too. If I am making chilli I use 500g of mince and 1 cup of rice plus all the other bits that go in chilli. That easily feeds 4 of us with leftover chilli to have on a jacket spud the day after.

Yes but I bet your meal consists of more than half a pineapple ring and a matchbox size piece of meat to go with it Maybe the shallot garnish is filling

The meal is also for aussies, most would down a meal 10 times that size

M&S are doing 'dine in for 2' meal deal for £10. You get main, side dish, dessert and a bottle of wine for £10. That sound's like fantastic value to me and food looks good.

http://www.marksandspencer.com/Dine-...id=AB_HP_ST_DI

M&S have some amazing food deals at the moment. 3 Kid meals for £5, and also 3 adult meals for £5.

I was amazed, so we went mental in M&S and I assumed it would be over £100, ... nope £64 For 2 weeks food for a family of 4.

Granted. Rice is a 'side' unless it's Risotto of course so there's far more of the main but I don't do a lot of measuring so I've no real idea of how much. Wouldn't put pineapple in a main whatever it was, pineapple is pud - end of!
