    We do our weekly shop at tesco because of where it is, like I explained. Before we go there, we go to the local thai shop for the Mang Tomas, milk fish, talapia and Jane noticed some wierd friut called Rambutan, they were in a pack of 15 and on sale for £3.95 then Jane goes into this 'can I, can I' so we get and by the time we get to tesco, less than a 5 minute drive away, half the packet has gone! anyway, guess what we found for sale in the fruit section yes, Rambutan in a pack of 4 costing £1.99 and by the size of the tray they were being stored in, they were selling like hot cakes.
    They were of the same quality, Jane looked, so that must be right
    Yes, some of us are guilty for falling for the 'special offer' tags

    I've had them in Malaysia - very nice and popular. Never noticed them in PI but no doubt plenty there as its a tropical fruit

    Am I correct in assuming YOU work for 'Iceland', Rob? There used to be branches in Perth - and its larger neighbouring city, Dundee ... until they ... ... (if I may borrow your earlier ) ... disappeared in a cloud of volcanic ash! Actually they stopped trading in MY neck of the woods, some years back - more's the pity! Now, Myrna & I frequently find ourselves taking full advantage of the same type of produce sold at 'Farmfoods'. Not the famous M&S brands ... much-alluded-to on the telly, perhaps ... but nevertheless of fine quality [in OUR considered opinion]! For instance, where else nowadays, is one likely to be able to purchase two half-loaves of 'Hovis' for a quid? Not at any of the bigger retail outlets discussed previously in this thread ... that's for sure!
