    Ooh the actual big metal tins? :P
    They're still €8 on the website but the plastic tubs are showing as 2 for a tenner. Maybe different in store?

    the quota notices are BS. its just a marketing gimmick to suggest how good the offer is.

    Ah jaysus don't be giving me ideas :D:D:D:D
    QS are much better than Roses now. Though the bar has been lowered to be fair.

    Anyway in the spirit of sticking with this thread, they are still €3 - valid from 28/11/2019 until 1/12/2019

    I read an article this year saying that this was the most expensive Christmas in a decade and I believe it so far.

    I haven't come across anything yet. Not even a teaser that they were doing them.
    However they generally don't give much notice about the offers if they are really good.
    Dunnes are also rubbish on social media.

    They had romantica ice cream down to €4, but wasn't specifically advertised for it. This was one of the 12 days dunnes had last year if I'm not mistaken

    Yeah it was half price last year I think, it was listed as a 12 day offer but lasted longer.

    Maybe all the offers last longer / stock sold I can't remember.

    Tesco tubs are still a fiver
    SAVE 1.01 Was 6.00 Now 4.99
    valid from 11/12/2019 until 17/12/2019

    it ends on 17th so I predict a big price drop, probably 3 for a tenner, mine is still stocked to the roof with them and I do not notice people buying them. I think they have copped on from previous years that they will drop more.

    I thought it strange that only the QS had a good price so far in tesco, at 3euro.

    mother of jaysus! what a waste, bring them into work. The creme eggs ones are better than creme eggs as there is a better ratio of chocolate to goo.

    all the tubs are 3.99 in aldi

    There were loads in Dunnes Carlow. In 2 or 3 piles, and more brought out from the warehouse while I was there. No sign that I could see about limits - I bought 5.
