    heroes tubs are 5 in tesco.

    Only 5.00 Cadbury Heroes Tub
    valid from 10/10/2018 until 16/10/2018

    another will probably drop to 5 after that date. Quality street were previously 5, so celebrations or roses should be next.

    Tesco *had* them a few weeks ago (bought the last 3 boxes in Maynooth at the time). They did not have a Christmas display of them.

    I keep looking in Tesco Maynooth and never see them :D

    Dunnes have Roses listed at €5.99, why do they do that when they will be automatically brought up to €6 at checkout. While at it why do Dunnes give 1p coins in change.

    Em, no it won't... rounding only applies to cash sales not cards (which a lot of people use), and also if you combine with other purchases, it may round down rather than up depending on the total.

    I have had the same issue with Lidl in the past. They rounded the price up even if you were paying with card.

    Oh wow. I stand (or sit!) corrected. I must watch out for that, though have never noticed it before.

    This is on sale in the UK (So, it might come here) a TIN of roses. It's 800g and priced at £8 at the moment!(I know it's not a bargain alert but some people love a tin.)

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,867 ✭✭✭matchthis


    They probably include the weight of the tin:pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,370 ✭✭✭✭rubadub


    The metal tins are still in supervalu

    https://shop.supervalu.ie/shopping/food-cupboard-seasonal-quality-street-tin-1-2-kilogram-/p-1558316000

    Quality Street Tin (1.2 Kilogram)
    €8.00 €6.67 per kg

    these are €12 in tesco
    https://www.tesco.ie/groceries/Product/Details/?id=297556763

    The tubs are 720g, so the tin is 1.666 times the size. So at 8euro it is like €4.80 for a tub.

    They are not normal maltesers though so 275g for €3 is actually a very good price. They are the ones from the celebrations tub which everyone knows are the best flavour/variety! :pac::D

    I know they are not normal, pretty sure they have a higher ratio of chocolate which is why I would expect higher weight. Just saying the 3euro items in dealz are usually amazing value, often much higher grams per euro than the 1.50 deals.

    The mars pouch listed a few weeks ago which contained these type of malteasers were 450g.
