Hi all,
This is my first post on frugal living. I'm normally on grow your own, but wanted to tell someone about our waffle experiment, and I thought you guys would be more interested in hearing it.
Anyway OH went shopping today and decided to trade down a brand. We usually buy Birds Eye Waffles, flash eh, well as a pair of DINKys (Dual Income No Kids) we can afford to live a little.
Anyway, on this occasion she went for Morrisons own, but didn't tell me. She sprang the surprise just as I was sitting down to dinner: waffles, chicken kief, sweatcorn and peas, very nice. I had two waffles on my plate (I normally have three, but I'd been eating biscuits all afternoon so wasn't as hungry) one was Birds Eye and the other the far cheaper Morrisons own brand. Could I guess which was which?
In short. No. And I preferred the Morrisons own. And the Morisons ones have more potatoe on them. The waffles are the same size but the squares were smaller because they had thicker sides, so more potatoe.
So there you go. No need to pay the extra.
No connection with Morrisons by the way. Just satisfied with their potatoe waffles.
Cheers,
Mark.
