    they were discontinued a couple of months ago
    Im sure I read this, and it had something to with the company making cutbacks due to the whole recession thing

    It's been a few months since I have seen them. They were great for lunch boxes, took up less space.

    I thought they might have been discontinued :(

    Thanks for that, I have now found an answer on their instant question/answers section! (I had been looking for "Mini Pringles" rather than "Pringles Mini"!!)

    Question
    Why can't I find Mini Pringles?

    Answer
    Unfortunately Mini Pringles have now been discontinued, purely for marketing reasons. I do hope you are not too disappointed.

    I am very disappointed................................ down to marketing:(:(:(

    Luckily I've still been able to buy them!

    Jack Fultons (frozen food) shops still had them, bought some last week.Multipacks of 5, two for £1 !!

    Possibly these are only a Yorkshire based company!?:confused:

    Now I know they've been discontinued, I'll have to stock up on them, although knowing my luck they've probably now sold out.


    As already mentioned they were ideal for lunchboxes!

    Farmfoods are still selling them, I think the expiry is like april and they are only 39p for a 5 pack.

    Are they discontinuing the bags as well?

    The past two exam periods, bags of mini pringles have been my main meals!

    That's cheaper than I get them!

    Must pop into Farmfoods.:)

    Was that £2.50 for each pack of 5, or a single mini pack?

    Either way it's a rip off! :eek:

    I don't think they were as nice as normal Pringles IMO, they tasted artificial, like they were made from dried potato/potato granules or summat :(
