£2 for 6 pies, or 33p a pie I’m impressed with the range ASDA have in their stores, festively speaking. I picked up three packs of pies and I believe there are least four more I didn’t purchase. We all enjoy a variety! The brown box makes me think the product will be sweet. I … More ASDA Extra Special Salted Caramel Mince Pies
£1 for four pies or 25p a pie. This might be brief. Like the life of this pack o’ pies. My wife requested a pack of puff pastry mince pies.

Brandy buttercream … More ASDA Extra Special pies (4 different packs)
In today’s double review, I look at the standard and luxury mince pies that Iceland have to offer. The standard pies will only require you to part with a pound coin, whereas you’ll need £1.89 for the luxury product. 89p for a luxury product isn’t too shabby either, but that’s what i’ve come to expect … More Iceland double whammy
And now for something completely different! £1 for a pack. Okay, so this isn’t a mince pie review. It’s a festive offering from Mr Kipling so it gets a blogging! My wife picked these up today as I was purchasing some mince pies. The colouring of the box confuses me as I thought this was … More Mr Kipling 6 Chocolate Orange whirls
