Saw these in the chiller section in Morrisons. They look lush. There's a white chocolate one with a strawberry centre and vanilla sponge (or something), a milk choc and caramel one, and 2 others  which I forget. They were over 2 pound per dessert so a bit pricey.

Sound nice. I will wait for a BOGOF or similar to try them.

I don't think they'll be selling them there just yet.

The chill cabinet manager at the Tesco I check admitted they are not selling well due to their price. If you know the time your local Tesco conducts its price reductions, BE THERE!

Me! Tescos recently had their blueberries down to 10p a box! The Co-op reduse their stuff right down as well. I got a kilo of lean mince for £1.40 the other week and Ginsters Pies down to 70p

So they reduce things just before closing? I must admit I only ever buy
stuff like Ben & Jerry's or Hagen Daz if it's reduced.

Yes, but normally things like ice cream get reduced if they're a discontinued range or a few weeks away from their sell-by. It's fresh stuff that gets reduced at closing time.

Its uaully the fresh stuff like, fruit, veg, yogurts and bread which get reduced. Oh and meat.

The bread and meat are good cos it can be frozen. The fruit usually lasts a couple more days as well.

Apparently bakeries do the same just before they close.
