[Food] You go into a newsagent to buy...

[Stato]

If you're in a newsagent, then you have to take the opportunity to buy things that only they have through their 'Goodnight Sweetheart' portal back to the 70s/80s*.

This means anything from Bobbys, Scampi Fries, Spicy Nik Naks or Fish and Chips biscuits.
Accompany with a can of Shandy Bass, Dandelion & Burdock, Barrs Cream Soda or a generic brand milk shake in a plastic bottle.
Chocolate would be Cadbury's Snack, Bournville's Rum & Raisin, Dairy Milk Crunch or the soon to be gone Caramac: - Basically anything you could have found in a vending machine stuck to a train station wall.

Add in a single samosa in a plastic bag out of the fridge cabinet and you're living the dream.

* - Newsagents and ESK - Over twenty years into this millenium and I managed to find Goblin Steak Puddings and cardboard boxes of Poppets in ESK! I keep returning, but haven't found 'Cremola Foam' or 'Rise and Shine'.

Some FANTASTIC suggestions on here and many threesomes that I'd like be all over.

Does a three-pack (or maybe even a sleeve of 10) of Jaffa cakes class as a 'chocolate bar'? I doubt it, so I'd choose: Walkers Sensations' lime and corriander chutney poppadoms, a Spira and blackcurrent tango*

*which gives me the excuse to post this beauty:

 

[maidstoneseagull]

Snickers
Coke
Salt and Vinegar or Thai sweet chill sensations

A selection of scud mags, discreetly concealed in a folded newspaper with just the prices showing

 

[MJsGhost]

Salt & Vinegar Squares
Still water
Whatever chocolate bar the homeless person outside fancies (I don't have a sweet tooth)

 

[Maupays fragrant shart]

I so miss Frazzles

Noticed that the Tesco finest beef and horseradish (Brannigans replacement discussed in this thread) have been out of stock for a few weeks.

In a panic, I emailed Tesco and my worst fears confirmed - they’ve been discontinued. Recommend buying up stock if you see it and are a fan.

Why does this always happen to products I love

 

[Swegulls]

A Snickers and a Coke will do.

 

[OzMike]

Cheese and Onion, Mars Bar and Still Water.

 

[Rdodge30]

Walkers sweet Thai chilli crisps
Aero
Pint of milk
..and a good moan about how the Racing Post is now £4.50 and how I can remember being shocked when it went up to £1

 

[abc]

1 packet of crisps, 1 chocolate bar and 1 soft drink.

What are you choosing?

To put on weight?!

 

[C1 BHA]

Blimey! Roll on the footy starting again…….

 

[HeaviestTed]

Do we keep the bottle top on the drink or have to have it there and then?
