Gogo84

I have bought my entire Christmas Dinner from cook except the Pudding. They deliver and I have always found their meals the best in taste and variety.

You don't live near me, do you Gogo84? All I want is their nutroast but I would need to spend over £45 for delivery. Fair enough, but my local store is 40 miles away.

Aldi do some excellent Christmas products if you choose their Specially Selected range for a much more affordable price. They do a lovely round Christmas cake with no marzipan or icing which is very moist and lasts very well if stored in a cake tin. It’s the same as the more expensive version from M & S. Their mince pies are always excellent too and I wouldn’t be surprised if their Christmas puddings were just as good.

Wiztend, you just reminded me of the time 29 years ago to be exact I’d just had my 3rd baby and asked my DH to get food for Christmas Day and he did the entire shop in M&S everything was pre-made I think I still have the receipt somewhere 😂😂

A couple of years I did the whole Christmas dinner from scratch. I was bloody knackered by time we sat down and my kitchen was unbelievable. Would i do it again? No way, I cut as many corners as possible now. M&S, Lidl & Aldi will be my go to shops this year.
