    50p? Surely this was for a multipack. I'd have thought they were under 20p

    On a similar note, since when did smarties come in a tube that isn't a tube and most importantly, with no plastic lid with letter? ?

    Smarties used to be so lovely, now they have a vile aftertaste.

    We bought Mars bars for 25p the other day. i felt like I was in a time warp ?

    I know - firing the lid off an empty Smarties tube was half the fun of them. The new tubes are rubbish!

    Polos are considered imported, classy candy over here. They sell at about three dollars, or 1 pound 50p.

    Our Smarties have never come in a tube. They come in rectangular boxes. No fun!

    I was thinking exactly the same thing the other day, except they were 55p in the shop I was in. So I bought Softmints instead.

    Shocking rip-offery.
