... being told a regular sized box of Rice Krispies is a bargain at £2.

2 flipping quid for Rice Krispies and I'm supposed to flaming well be impressed.

Money grabbing shysters.

Apologies for the driveltastic nature of this thread, but it's an itch that won't go away.

T'was 2.79, don't know what you're complaining about :lol:

Icy Gull · Jul 8, 2014

What are you doing eating rice crispies at your age? :smile:

Buy them in the form of Variety Pack boxes THEN see how cheap £2 is.

What's that (rough guess) ? 25p a bowl. That's bloody cheap brekkie

Do they still snap crackle and pop tho

Stat Brother · Jul 8, 2014

Don't even start on variety packs, or should that be variety thimbles.

I don't know why this has got so far under my skin, but it's been gnawing away at me since Friday.

Sure we're in a recession.
The cost of living has gone up.
Wages are stagnant.
Blah blah blah.

But bloody Rice Krispies 'ONLY' £2.

I'm supposed to be freakin grateful you're only going to charge me 2 quid, for something that probably cost you 10p to produce.

I did but it turns out I'm now more of a 'wholewheat biscuit' kind of guy.

Alpen would be my recommendation :thumbsup:

MORTY · Jul 8, 2014

is that for the 500g or the 750g pack?

Cheeky Monkey · Jul 8, 2014

Weetabix - loaded with sugar
Rice Krispies - loaded with sugar
Alpen (the one with sugar) - loaded with sugar
Corn Flakes - loaded with sugar
etc.

Shredded Wheat - the only 'mainstream' breakfast cereal outside of porridge with no added sugar (and bloody lovely it is too)

Prince Monolulu · Jul 8, 2014

No idea why, but mention Shredded Wheat and this appears in my head.

I was in Tesco today and you could get 4 x 150ml Lynx BO Basher for the price of two. So, £6.38.

Or you could buy 3 x 200ml Lynx for a total of £6. Saving, 38p and less material wasted.

A boring observation, but a saving nonetheless.

They've been after salt and now they are going to go after sugar and rightly so. A ridiculous amount in food. People are so worried about fat content, they'll buy something loaded with sugar. Cutting down on sugar is the key to losing weight and fat is not so addictive.

It's even worse when you consider that all they are hollow and only contain is air.

Do you have hot or cold milk with it?

I'm trying to eat less sugar, not more.

Defintely cold. Hot milk is a crime against lactose.
