    I used to have a big problem with Aldi & Lidl but, with the introduction of new stores, they both have pushed themselves up the ladder with tidier stores and better ranges.
    Haribos not Haribo's.

    I had never previously considered that Iceland would become our major provider.
    I agree 100%. Been using them over lockdown.

    Only reservation is that you dont get the choice of product with bigger supermarkets but easy enough to pick up the odd delicacy that might be missing elsewhere.

    When a shop like Waitrose sells the same stuff as Home Bargains at twice the price then the jokes on the Waitrose shoppers I'm afraid.

    Being serious for a moment (I know it is a source of humour for many, myself included !) I've been a long term sufferer in that area and having been in "remission" for several years, the buggers have returned with a vengeance.

    Knowing how ineffective the stuff you get over the counter (and via the doctor) can be, I decided to check out the best cream on the market. It cost me £17 but I ordered a product that was widely recommended called Ariella and it is absolutely brilliant. No more ****ol for me !

    Spot on.
    I know of a child who asked his uncle for blue tac for Christmas this year so he could put up his posters. He had nothing last year at all. Imagine how he would’ve felt with any toy from home bargains, would’ve meant the world.

    How often do you apply it? And does it get rid of the little buggers?

    You apply it with one of those electronic fly swat rackets. It's highly effective.
