Cheap sugar - Heron foods
I have a couple of close friends who know what I choose to do in my spare time, one of them sent me a message this morning to let me know Heron Foods are selling 1kg white sugar for 37p. Don't know if you have one near you but seems a good price

Thats 9.25 for 25kg - that really is cheap.
I personally think it is worth stocking up now, given that the oil price is on the rise again

26 mile round trip.
That adds 3 or 4 litres of fuel to the price.
Maybe give it a miss.
Really good that to share this stuff.

While out shopping in Aldi on Sunday, I picked up some sugar for 39p a kilo.
Never seen it as cheap as this before.

I have a spare 6x4 ft shed that needs erecting,I'm thinking of calling it the sugar shack and filling it,as these prices will not last much longer.

Farmfoods have Tate & Lyle on at 39p, and that's cane.

Re: Cheap sugar - Heron foods
As far as I'm to believe Jaggery is cane sugar (some folks say it's palm
)....T&L have cane sugar but it's £1:60 per KG.
