How much, is too much...

Pfft, your food is ridiculously cheap compared to over here. A cheap, shitty pack of biscuits, skin to a cheap brand of rich tea, cost about 2.25lv, about a quid.

GOOD biscuits are about double that!
 
M&S salted caramel cookies are a little bit pricey but nice occasional biscuits.

These £20 biscuits are reserved for footballers and other people who have gold plated toilets. Bout to find out the boss has one methinks...
M&S in some branches have ridiculously low prices in their Brand, the same as top brand biscuits - not that I can eat sweet things now - my son & wife enjoy them .... doh -
 

... for 600g of biscuits?

What is the maximum you'd pay?

Now, I'm someone who buys the home brand stuff of chocolate digestives over McVities.

Bourbons, Custard Cremes... Penguins. Anything over £1 for biscuits and I'm raising an eyebrow Carlo Ancelotti would struggle to replicate.

But at Christmas, I was gifted a tin.

"Toffolossus Biscuits"

They looked a bit exotic, I figured they'd be fragrant, not for me and never bothered with them.

Eventually, I tried one.

Sweet lord.

They're the last biscuit on death row style biscuit.

I went to bulk buy them, then I twigged the cost.

£19.95;


For 600g of biscuits.

That's a hell of a lot isn't it?

For 2 weeks I've gone through 7 stages of grief in agonizing whether to buy them.

You can get a top up 600g for £15.95, but that's still staggering.

For biscuits.

I have a mortgage ffs, I can't go paying £15.95+ delivery for 600g of biscuit.

Can I?

So thoughts, dear readers.

If it was say Christmas and for instance Single malts were your thing, you might lash out £150.
if they're that good treat yourself, you can't take it with you.
Its £15 ffs

Assuming a per biscuit weight of ~20g (I have taken the weight of a digestive (17g) as a frame of reference here), that's 30 biscuits per pack.

If these biscuits are as good as you say - and from the description I fail to see how they couldn't be - then roughly 66p per biscuit sounds like a snip, tbf.

I'd be busy tapping up whoever spent £19.95 on biscuits to pay the server costs.
