Can't find my receipt, but 227g bags of ground reduced to €1.02 from approx €4.30(ish)

Davy · 06-09-2011 10:06pm

still €4.09 online anyway

ActingDanClark · 06-09-2011 10:43pm

Found my receipt, I had the price right, and am now the proud owner of 4 packs;)

what does it taste like?

also..what's the best before date on the pack...coffee is often reduced when BBD is coming close...?

I'll certainly give it a try at that price...ta...:)

if you like it strong and you've got a grinder, i can highly recommend the black & beyond, it's very deep & rich, but without being too bitter. i'm a sucker for a latte, but i like it really strong and it does a really good job imho.

not so sure you'll get the black & beyond cheap, but it's still well worth it.

Bbd is Nov 2012, haven't tasted it yet. Bought it in ballybrack but was also in dun laoghaire, so presume its all stores

Sappy404 · 07-09-2011 9:43am

Is this beans or ground coffee?

Edit: Nevermind, I re-read the original post :P

lindtee · 07-09-2011 1:04pm

Thanks, got some in Douglas earlier, was marked full price on the shelf but indeed did scan at €1.02. Loads still left on the shelf.

Libera · 07-09-2011 1:53pm

Wertz · 13-09-2011 4:33pm

None in their old Dundalk store, managed to get the last pack stuffed among another brand.

redalan · 13-09-2011 6:52pm

tantipie · 13-09-2011 6:54pm

none in the cresent limerick or roxboro but plenty in tesco nenagh:D

cableguy.ie · 14-09-2011 1:20pm

About 10 more of them available in Clarehall as of 1.15pm

0lddog · 14-09-2011 1:43pm

I got a packet of this stuff.

Its, um, not up to much

Aldis Java is miles better ( even if it is over twice the price )

I suppose percol is OK if you like (whisper it ) mild coffee

xraylady · 14-09-2011 3:16pm

Just got last 4 packs in Tesco Killarney. Only Guatemala blend reduced although all are marked €4.02. Thanks..

Wertz · 14-09-2011 3:51pm

Certainly somewhat mild compared to my normal stuff (Java) but an extra spoon of it and it'll do. Drank (and paid for) worse. Still a bargain.

batmanzed · 14-09-2011 8:30pm

There are a good few left in Ballyfermot, be careful of the expiry dates though, they range from Jan 11 to march 12. Had to have a root for the mar 12 ones.
