Do you think biscuits are becoming a luxury item. I got a box of tea times as a present and loved the jam creams. Went to buy a pack of foxes jam creams at tesco. And they were £1.08 or 2 packs for a pound. So i stocked up but my mum just ate my last 3. Now the offers gone off. So now i've got to drop a brand and get tesco own at 58p.

In other words, biscuits aren't becomming a luxury item since you can by it at 58p.

I get Oreos.

You can get a large pack of Custard Creams for 23p from Asda, so i hardly think they are becoming a luxuary, i even picked up McVitties digestives for less than 60p this week on offer...

I've just polished off the last of the Fox's Raspberry & Cream Melts. Delicious - definite luxury. Malted milk tomorrow.

I used to like bikkies when I was younger but now don't like the messy sensation they leave in my mouth, as if my teeth are full of debris in even nook and cranny.

I am perfectly happy with Tesco Value biscuits, especially the chocolate digestives.

Maybe your dip is too aggressive.

I don't get 'biscuits' at all. My husband adores them and stuffs loads down with a brew. Custard creams and bourbons are the most awful - chaf with fat, flavouring, colouring and a bag of sugar.

I go through stages with biscuits. I went through a Ginger Nut stage that lasted about 6 months. Then it was a Rich Tea stage. Now im on Garibaldi's. I love a Garibaldi.

As you can tell, i much prefer a plain biscuit. Not keen on choccie ones.

...and butter
I thought I was the only one who put butter on a rich tea, my kids think I am odd as I like to dunk my buttered toast in my tea, or my porridge.
Also love jam covered soldiers to dip into my boiled egg.
