    I started eating those back in '03 when I worked for Blockbuster Video in the states. I was amazed, nae, floored, to find them in a small farm market in Dorset.

    Those buffalo ones are evil, because the deeper you get into the bag the hotter they become. I was fine until about 1/3, then the sweating began.

    That's the graveyard dude.lol. I won't be taking it with me (I will be taking the smaller, infinitely more office like) desk next to it with me. This oak lump is staying put as it wasn't mine and I can't move it.

    Unless I'm very much mistaken, that looks like a bottle of Loaded e-liquid... Can't tell the flavour though. I've only ever tried their Cran Apple flavour...

    Kronuts iirc. It's awesome but expensive so I'm using Rodeo now (3x100ml for £18) but the dropper bottle is useful as hell. But yeah man I can highly recommend the glazed kronuts.

    Not a "purchase", per se, but it's pretty neat:

    It's a scam card mate, you should have more numbers and less black ink than that.

    These just came to my attention recently, I was told Sainsbury's sell them but there were none when I went in; where do you normally buy them?

    Edit: who gets a credit card printed with their username? :hehe:

    The USA :D

    Jokes aside I just seem to find them randomly every now and then. Some one is obviously either importing them or making them close by. I would imagine the details of the person doing that would be on the bag somewhere, but it's been five years since I have had them.

    Or, if you don't mind them being slightly past-prime, you can get 'em half-price from Cut Price Barry's - 65p a bag, best before end of December 2018. He gets a lot of weird imported USian stuff in: Hi-Chews, Hershey's Kisses, A&W Root Beer Twists, Candy Corn, Red Vines, Strange Pop-Tart Flavours, Froot Loops Inna Cup, Jolly Ranchers (sorry, Reddit users), Lucky Charms Not Inna Cup, Marshmallow Peeps, Hostess Sno Balls, Laffy Taffy, Swiss Miss Cocoa, Hostess Twinkies, Milk Duds, Lifesavers Wint-o-Green, Swedish Fish, Hawaiin Punch Freezer Bars, TGI Friday's Potato Skins...

    Basically, you know the US food aisle in the supermarket that you pass, pick up a few things, look at the prices and think "christ, who'd pay that?" Well, the answer is "nobody," and when they end up reaching their best-before date the supermarkets load 'em on a palette and send 'em to Barry to sell at a hefty discount. I buy a load of stuff there - particularly the super-cheap syrup waffles, which are only just past prime and will be perfectly tasty for a good couple of years to come.

    The honey mustard ones are the best. They were the ones they made originally before all else. I've not managed to find those in the UK yet, just the buffalo sauce ones.

    I've also had them past sell by date before and found them easier to eat (they're pretty hard and crunchy).

    I did yeah and followed the link. Those are the ones I used to eat at BBV. They're gorgeous. I will order some when I reach my mother's house.

    Just watch postage: the minimum fee is £3.99 for, I think, 25kg - so either order A LOT of Snyders, or find some other stuff to bulk out the order in order to maximise your savings.

    Yeah very familiar with the postage as I used to order a lot of stuff from American Sweets. I needed my root beer fix (sorted now, Asda do a really good one called Carter's) and my buffalo sauce (which you can get here now, Frank's red hot) and Dunkin Donuts coffee, which is now cheaper from a place on Ebay. TBH everything I've bought from AS has been out of date because otherwise it's just too expensive (and they charge £7 or so for shipping too). You need to do a £50 order really, to make it worth while.

    Also if you guys like Snyder's then these are well worth a go. I faffing love these they're evil I can't stop until the (large) bag is empty.
