Which toy was she after? I have a NERF disc in ours. If that is what she wanted then you are welcome to it (but i'm assuming she saw something a bit more exciting) x

We buy Morrisons versions, 2 for £2 usually.

We try not to buy any Nestle products (google if you want to know why!) and we have found Morrison’s ‘fake Shreddies’ are as good as the real ones.

Supermarkets will also take advantage of customers believing that 'named' brands are better so will price them knowing people will buy them.

Do you mean the farmers are asking for more money to compensate for late planting due to the weather.

We bought some multicoloured cereal from Walmart last year, and it was like eating perfume! Even DS, who will eat anything, couldn’t stomach it.

You are basically paying for advertising and more shareholder profit.

Thanks I forgot about all the marketing these cereals have. I was just reading that it's wheatabix who make some of Morrison's own branded cereals.

My SIL works in a biscuit factory. Some of the own brand biscuits are exactly the same as ones for a certain more upmarket shop - but the upmarket ones have posher packaging and a shorter use by date!

It just shows its all in the packaging. It's mostly own brands we buy for everything except a few brands we like and have tried swapping but don't like the swap.
