I knew it would be risky......

Well I don't expect them to last 5 weeks but you'll enjoy eating them so it was a good buy.

Always buy the huge packets. I like Walker's meaty ones. DH and I have a bag between us each day with our lunch

A wise buy Katey - always a big saving to buy big ... This from a woman who did not buy any biscuits at all this week as when they are in the house I eat them for breakfast!

A week ago, T...o had several big bags of Tyrells crisps in one of those end of line bins. So I bought 6 packets of 5, as they were only 18 p per bag. So I got all those for less than I would have spent on the usual multi pack bag. Bargain, and they were well in date.

So glad I am not the only one who risks pigging out on crisps! On my bad days I have had several bags instead of eating a proper meal!

I'm glad I share my guilty secret with others, just love crisps ( and chocolate )

DH always saves me from myself. He's a very good cook and the sort of irritating person who'll take one chocolate from a box and close the lid. Ditto one crisp from a pack. If I'm on my own I can happily graze on junk all day long, and those crisps would be the first to go.

Me too! I adore plain crisps and can't leave them alone. So I don't buy them . When I was working I would eat a couple of packets a day, and since I retired I have had to wean myself off them. I usually buy a pack when GS is coming to stay, but I send the the packs he doesn't eat home with DD so that I do not fall on them and devour them as soon as he is out the door!!

No willpower Katey! I have started buying my Mars Bars in bulk on line. 144 at a time, they last 144 days. Saves loads. (Before anyone asks the 265 calories are factored into the daily intake).

There's a recipe in the guardian for rice crispy cake with five mars bars. Sorry back to crisps.

Sacrilege Stansgran!

Oh, I don't know Alima, I saw a recipe the other day that I'm longing to try, but dare not! For everyone who loves crisps, peanuts and chocolate here it is. Oh, temptation. ??

By the by - I was talking to a friend about the 'hidden' calories in alcohol yesterday. I would hesitate, I am sure, if you showed me a plate of food that had 1000 calories on it that I didn't need, but open a bottle of prosecco and ...

My 'guilty' pleasure is definitely biscuits. Simply not buying them at present. I do have a will of iron ...iron filings! ;grin]

I love a ham sandwich with ready salted crisps in it - for breakfast!

I am proud to say, those crisps lasted 2 weeks and others were involved in eating them. It has been so lovely to hear from all you crisp fans, now, just off to shops, we have no crisps in!
