Did you notiec the ridiculous prices though? My daughters boyfriend couldnt believe it when he saw what they were charging for most of the things in there.

i know i think the lucky charms were about £10.00, I did not buy any needless to say, I prefer to wait untill were in florida it gives us all something else to look forward to

The one sauce I cant find in the UK is ranch, the one I did find was very runny. also buffalo wing sauce. But the one thing that I always bring home is barnies flavoured coffee

Lucky Charms - you used to get them here but they stopped them because of the E numbers.
[/quote]Oh so that is why we had to bring back two boxes last time we were out!

My children love Mountain Dew and Lucky Charms too. I've seen it advertised in the UK to buy but at ridiculous prices[msnscared] so refuse to buy and that way it is a special treat when we are in the US
