Sugar @Booker.

[Icefever]

We went to our local Booker this morning and found that they had on offer 25kg bags of sugar for £6, needless to say, I came away with 2...sugar washes here we come..

Ice.

[gaza the instructor]

Yes but £2.15 for a 5kg bag just rip and tip!
I hate weighing out.

[Easydrinker]

Ice.
ONLY TWO?

I would have gone into overdraft
Did you miss a digit in your post?

Robert.

PS. Ice's 23p/Kg and gaza's 43p/Kg both sound like a wind up.

[Mash]

Bugger that was my post

Only 2! Were you walking home?

[Icefever]

We had so much other stuff the car was full......and it's finding somewhere to keep it....it's going in the back bedroom for now. I'm poping in to Booker next week for pork to start another run of curing so if they still have it I'll get another couple.

Bought 15x5kg last week will top up this week to last till new year.
Need to be lock down proof so bought 5 cases of Holsten Pils to be
on the safe side.

I did notice the gents in question not confirming the stated prices
Pics of receipts will be taken as proof.

ED you doubt the word of Ice and The Gaza? There will be terrible
things happening, not Horses heads but large, hairy, fast Spiders
borrowed from another member. We will hear no more of this
dis-belief or doubt other wise The Iceman cometh and probably
Mrs Ice. I the great Gaza will not, as its to far and costs a lot.

[Icefever]

Now now Gaza, there's no need to send the wives up to Scotland...Mrs Ice can't stand spiders for a start...

The proof is here....

I love them hotdogs!

[Easydrinker]

I am gob-smacked at that price, and sit here in sack-cloth and ashes!
Your sweet tooth is showing through with the chocolate.

Robert.

[Icefever]

I knew that the choc would get a mention Robert that's my one a day..

Mash...we had a bbq last Sat and a couple of guys like them......I like them, even when I know what goes in them.. but hey ho once a year don't harm you?? I hope..

Ice.

ps..the toffee crisp is for Mrs Ice.

[Mash]

Never tried them bbq. A little bit of what you like can't hurt.

[Easydrinker]

I get through a pack of Lidl Frankfurters most weeks, 87% pork, though they don't state which bits they use!
2 or 3 wrapped around a slice of bread, a little Micro'd onions and some red sauce, nice snack.

Robert.

[Icefever]

Went to Bookers yesterday for both pork belly & loin, sold out of the belly until today.. never mind did buy another 25kg of sugar 75 kg should keep me busy for a few months.

Ice.

.... 87% pork, though they don't state which bits they use!

A quote from a chap at our abattoir "lips, ears and assholes". I think he means "connective tissue"

[Icefever]

The old adage.."the only thing to get away from a pig when you butcher him....is his squeal"

I am still envious of the sugar price that you are paying, today I realised we have a local Bookers,I will be investigate getting a card!

Our piggies go to slaughter next week, and the butcher has asked us to postpone, due to a backlog.
No way.
They are entire males, hitting puberty,
We are playing 'hunt a butcher', don't want pissy pork.
I may have to butcher all 3 myself.
Then we can't kegally sell, or even legally give away.
And have to eat them all ourselves.
If I stay awake, follow this in the food forum.
Gotta respect those forum police.
And food regulaters.

That price ED was "sale price" they had on about a doz items...maybe overstocked?? or just time to clear a shelf or two??.

Normal bulk buy is 50kg @ £28....works out @ 56p per kg sometimes they do 2x50kg bags for £26.
