I've put this in General as I don't think they're new, just new to me. It's basically a cheap version of Milk Tray or similar, which I just thought I'd try as I often fancy 'a chocolate' rather than a whole bar. The ones I've tried so far aren't bad at all - not amazing, but fine for a cheap treat.


Good points: Great for fruit lovers - contains a raspberry, orange and even an apricot cream


Bad point: Two coffee chocs

Who needs karma when you know you're great already?

Mmmm apricot cream.

I've heard that Tesco Value after dinner mints are actually nicer than After Eight.

I know an even cheaper choc than that made by Cadbury and given away free in most Tesco!


Tesco are selling 2 large bars of Cadbury for £2.20 BUT if you buy 2 large cadbury bubbly the discount doesn't come off, meaning you are charged £1.35 for each bar = £2.70


You pay for the bars take them to customer service and tell them you have been over charged (should of been £2.20 not £2.70) and they have to give you a refund and let you keep the choc


This was still working yesterday and going by Tesco's track record they probably haven't reprogrammed thier tills yet

This offer has been on for a while now, I'm so surprised Tesco didn't notice yet ... serves me right for getting fruit & nut as my discount came off correctly!


By the way my Mum bought some of those Tesco Value chocs for Christmas. I'd like to try the apricot cream, it sounds lovely.

I bought some of the Value after dinner mints today - they are gorgeous  Much nicer than After Eight and less than half the price.

Must give them a try. I'll buy some and put them away for Christmas. Well better try them first of course, to see if they are good

When it comes to Xmas I'll buy a few boxes and put them on a fancy tray to make it seem like they're really After Eights. No one will know
