Home Bargains is a great shop and has a certain sort of pride and class to it that its pound shop competitors often lack. I'm just sayin'. Bargain Madness can be all right too.
Tell you what I did see in Sainsbury's tonight, though; a Nestle selection box, seven brands for £2. It's just like a Christmas selection box but without the festivity, and not an unattractive price. I didn't partake because I don't really need seven chocolate bars, but it was briefly worth considering as an alternative to a pack of bar-style chocolate biscuits, in the context of packing - say - half a KitKat Chunky in my lunch rather than a 2-finger KitKat. (And haven't chocolate biscuit bars gone right up in price, too? Normally something is on offer, and the enforced variety breaks you out of routine, but the offers are generally "eight of something for £1", which definitely does not match with my mental price of what an offer might look like.)
