Nah i see them every year and every year i walk straight past them hehe

yet when i was in UK earlier this year didnt even think to want or buy any ! funny isnt it

[Guest Im Here]

OMG You sure it was $55 i wonder how many they sell at that price.

[Angela]

When I was in the UK Aug/Sept they were out on sale, I daren't post the sterling price !!

[Cannons]

£3.99 in morrisons just now for one of those big tins !!!!!

[Guest guest3462]

OMG!!!! That is just ridiculous! Much like the cost of all imported UK groceries. I have to say that when we go back to sort our shipping, i'll be putting loads of bisto, crisps and whatever else tickles my fancy in there too!!!

Ha, its funny, I spend 99.9% of my time wanting to be here in Aus and the other 0.1% wishing I could do some decent shopping!!!

[HEAPS GOOD !!!]

No doubt someone will purchase.....

We always had Quality Street and Roses on Xmas plates throughout the house back in Scotland (paid max £5 a large tin & didn't have to worry about those pesky ants) but doesn't bother me over here in the heat. Second Christmas here & still trying to get my head round it as it doesn't feel right - only started Xmas shopping today!! Normally would be all wrapped and ready to go in UK.

[Guest Guest75]

Food of the Devil.

Blimey ,I can't believe that price!!:shocked:

[Lazy Cow]

If it gives anyone hope...last year, quite early on in the season, Target sold boxes of Quality Street for a price that was comparable to a box of Favourites.

 

So don't give up hope! (Mind you that was the first time I had seen them over here so perhaps it won't happen again.)

Just been on the lolly shop in Hallett Cove and they're selling a tin of quality street for only $49.95, obviously a bargain compared to the other shop.

 

I'll stick to my ferrero rochers I think. mmmmm. Now just need somewhere cold to hide them from the rest of the family!
