    So after 2 minutes with no response the thread is 'inactive'? LOL!

    I've moved this thread to the correct forum & deleted the post in the Chat thread.

    Any cash and carry but if it's to get them cheaper then I don't find they are, hard to beat the German retailers. You will get branded products probably cheaper than retail but the supermarket own brands will more than likely beat those prices. I priced cocoa, flour, sugar, cherries, dried fruit in particular in a local place and none were cheaper per kilo than what I could buy the ordinary retail packs for.

    Different if you just want the convenience of big bags and cost isn't the issue.

    Oh, thanks.
    No, I said it seems inactive because I think the last post in that thread was made in 2010, unless I am mistaken. I wrote in a rush and only glanced at it.

    The last post was made exactly 15 minutes before yours, at 8.49pm :confused:. Not sure what you were looking at, but it's a very active thread (that was only started in late 2013!).

    I'm not sure now either as it's been deleted- can't say for sure which thread I'd posted in or what was looking at. It may not have been inactive after all, is that ok (moderators)? Good lord!

    I have managed to post about baking in the acrhaeology forum..:D
    Fast cursor id say FullblownRose :)

    I use the local cash and carry a good bit, reasonable savings i feel.
    But the quantity aspect is probably more the reason.
