Not really today, more like the past 6 years.

If you see something in a supermarket, buy it in bulk.

Park n Rob: Beef Hula Hoops, Smiths Square Crisps, Twiglets, Eccles Cakes, Double Deckers, Fry's Turkish Delight, pizza bases, Yorkshire puddings, crackling.
Choithrams: Tesco onion ring crisps, pork pies, scotch eggs.
Spinneys: mini salami.

Damn you, stock people.

Skips.
I would fill a room with them and eat myself to death, quite happily.

Skips? Those flighty white & pink flower shaped bits of something weird. I think I remember that they glue themselves to the roof of your mouth

In a butty? Interesting.
35 is a snip. Not buying them is more offensive than the price. I've paid north of 10dibs for a single grab bag before.

Totally.

I go for juice of half a lemon, Hellman's mayo, a squirt of tommy curry sauce and a decent sprinkling of cayenne pepper. Boom!

Oooh, now you've got me fancying an old fashioned prawn cocktail with defrosted prawns, a bed of lettuce and a dollop on top.

Followed by a steak and chips and Black Forest gateaux aka a Berni Inns Special.
