Quote from: Orcs on 24 October 2024, 02:01:56 AMJust noticed today that Flora spread 500g cartons, now comes in 450g cartons

But I expect that 450g carton is at least the same price as the old 500g one, or more  :o

Correct. But Tesco seem to have a permanent offer on eiither heb 450g or the 1KG, you just have to work out which one is cheaper.

I remember this happening years ago when I was running pubs, suddenly a load of the beer and alcopop bottles went from 330ml down to 275ml overnight, but were still the same price to buy in. It's such a con.
