Meenzer 15115 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Mind you, they should be grateful they've been launched at all. When I was living there and had that unstoppable urge for a full English, I had to buy some imported no-brand American beans for something daft like €1.20 a tin.

Aye, whinging Erics When I lived in France, they were more expensive and harder to find than gold flecked caviar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 20420 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Was in Tesco the other day actually and was pondering what the fuck has happened to the price of beans. A standard tin of Heinz beans is 66 pence. Now, maybe I've imagined it but I'm sure only a few years ago it was nearer 30p. Plus you could Economy ones for 8p. Now, another thing I noticed is the differential between plain Heinz beans and the far superior Beans and Sausages is only 24p (they're 90p). So it makes sense to upgrade to Beans and sausages imo.

Once or twice at university before I learned to cook properly. It's grim as fuck like. Hits the hangover spot though.

If you don't want a full tin, just put the other half in a tupperware container, much cheaper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
