But it's more commonplace to see them in plastic these days.

I don't usually buy any as we get given them. But if I do it'll be roses or quality street. I don't really like the others. There seems little point buying tiny versions of chocolates I can have any time of year. It doesn't feel special, it just feels more of a rip off than "fun" size bars

Less in the tubs this year and they cost more.

I got 2 pouches from Morrisons for £5.00 with the more card.

Probably best to wait until the tubs are 1/2 price in the sales

Finedon ,

So far I have bought a tub of Quality Street and one of Heroes for the Grandkids when they come round, the two girls both have sweet teeth and what is left in the tub when it is home time they stuff into their pockets, needless to say I will be buying some more on Saturday.

My Grandson is an odd one as he only likes Toblerone and that is not available in tubs so I have to buy him a few bars.

All in all it is going to be an expensive Christmas.

I live on my own and have little impulse control around chocolate. So none as it would be a terrible idea.

I'll treat myself to a nice selection from my favourite vegan brand instead (Conscious Chocolate if anyone cares, and if you like rose turkish delight their "love potion No9" is to die for)
