    No grolsch in my tesco, some further reductions on spirits which would be only local to that shop.

    They have a red spiced bacardi which was €16 the other day 700ml 40%, and it was down to €10 but all gone. Titos vodka was €22. Absolut Elyx was €24 (down from €60), Eristoff vodka was €9 something for 700ml but all gone.

    Dunes selling 2 crates of 24-pack cans for €50, only with Bulmers, Carlsberg and Budweiser tho.
    Glad to see a new version of the new yellow/green can is back for Bulmers. That bright red/orange striped can that’s been around the past few years is awful looking.

    So now we're fussy about how the cans look.:). "THE BOOM IS BACK BABY" :):)

    Nope. But I just couldn’t figure out, from a marketing perspective, who or how in Bulmers came up with that horrible rebrand a few years ago?? Hope this new can is the beginning of that old being phased out completely.

    Anyway there's always glasses - they make all cans equal.

    Got two slabs today with a voucher which made them 83 cents a pop, I couldn't care less about the color of the can at that price.

    Got two 1 itre bottles of Smirrnoff for 20 europeans each with another voucher, they've change the label on them too. A similar amount of fcuks are given.

    Any good Southern comfort deals out there?

    Check your local Tesco. Think some stores dropping Southern Comfort black and selling off at discount.

    Fraid not... someone had already bagged what was left in my tesco on a bargain hunt!
    Says online it has stronger whiskey flavour to it.

    Regular SoCo is 20e in Tesco as a fallback.

    I drank the Belgian beer gift set one Friday night.
    The hangover the next day was spectacular. This stuff tastes gorgeous and is easy to drink.

    It was a rookie error really as I wasn't really aware of the percentage until I was three in.

    AFAIK it finished on 4 June but a visit is the only way to be certain. The 25% back on points for wine ditto.
