Title: Texan Wars

Has anyone else noted the battle between British Candy and HelloSweetie raging on the Old Products thread? They are fighting for Texan sales from forum members by trying to better each others offers!

HelloSweetie has the edge I think. They are cheaper and have the best name by far.

I have to stick up for Britishcandy here. I can't fall them at all.

It's good for them to have competition though. It's good for us too!

Yes competition is healthy.

I couldn't find a Texan in the shops today.

Hello Sweeties. I just want people who are as
passionate about sweets as I am to look at my
website and tell me what they think.

PS The relaunched Texans do seem smaller than
before (as do Anglo Bubblies) and I'm not sure that
the chocolate tastes the same but the centre is still
as chewy (you still get the 'stringy bits' when you bite
into it and pull it away from your mouth).

I couldn't understand where to find the postage costs.

When you add a product to your bag then click on the
"View Bag" on the counter it tells you the total of
sweets and the postage. They are standard Royal
Mail costs, out of our control I'm afraid.

Apologies Claire for being thick. Took me ages to get there but once I did I realise it was easy. Lovely website, great sweets. I will place an order tomorrow.
