[Beetroot queen]

Dont think i had it wrong but todays price is £1.50 for two bags  so i got some more

Sainsburys do a 5kg bag of granulated at 85p per kg.  Locally, they are cheapest for sugar, vinegar and lemons so I get some funny comments sometimes when I am queuing at the till and people see the limited contents of my trolley - I've even been asked if I am on some special diet

can you use ordinary sugar for jam then?  I've been using the jam sugar which is really expensive

I use normal granulated

[SCassin]

I use granulated sugar for strawberry, blackberry but use jam sugar for gooseberry - just seems to work better I find.  If the fruit is sweet use granulated - that's my system 

[mumofstig]

Strawberry jam doesn't set easily, so I use jam sugar for that, everything else seems to set ok with ordinary granulated

[SCassin]

I always put a little diced apple in my strawberry jam and then find it sets ok but you don't taste the apple as don't use much
