Yeh I think they have have'nt they , and were's the jam centre'd wagon wheels gone.

Most things have shrunk tbh, even mini eggs are smaller. Don't remember jam centred wagon wheels (you thinking of jammy dodgers?

) never liked them anyway though. They also contain gelatin, so aren't vegetarian friendly...

Almost as bad as the canteen at work 60P for a can of Coca-Cola, i wouldnt mind but i work for Asda and they still want to make a profit on our food.

Really? In my ASDA canteen they are sold for the price of 32p... I guess I just work in a better store.

Eat that tesco's!

I don't like the new chocolate wagon wheels and the jam ones are just terrible. Bring back the Wagon Wheel of old!

what a con!
dont go to newsagents in future, they are always a rip off, also how come you bought it without looking at the price?

locutus12 · 14 Feb 2006 at 16:52

the biggest choc scandle has to be aero bubbles... 50p for a bag of chocolate covered air ???

Arcade Fire · 14 Feb 2006 at 16:54

What I find most confusing is that you didn't notice the price when you bought them :confused:

Also i swear packs of Revels, MnM's, Skittles used to be bigger, you only get like 8 in a pack these days. Either their getting smaller or its cos i got bigger, either way its terrible.

benjo plz. · 14 Feb 2006 at 16:57

And minstrels, they're taking the **** tbh.

Dark and Light Mars Bars/Midnight mars bars (they they renamed them) should be made permanent. They are lush.

Heh, if I was going to spend that kind of money on a chocolate bar, I'd just drive the 75 miles north to Winnepeg and buy them direct.

Hrm, wonder if the wife feels up to a road trip for some MacIntosh's toffee, a crate load of Aero bars, and a pickup truck load of Smarties..... :evilgrin:

Perhaps you can explain this thing that's always troubled me, Mickey.

Why does American chocolate suck so much ass?

clv101 · 14 Feb 2006 at 17:52

I had a Flake yesterday - first time in years. It was 42p. I remember thinking it was a bit much but then Flakes have always been a little more than regular Mars bars etc.

Indeed, American chocolate is truly dreadful!
