I have only discovered in recent weeks just how delicious these biscuits are, but I am having trouble locating them. I managed to aquire a tub of Mini Oreos from Tesco online, but that's about it.

Does anyone know where (preferably chain supermarket/store) I can purchase a pack of normal sized Oreos from?

Sainsburys do a box of 16 for 60p.

Or Selfridges do the awesome double choc ones for about £6.

I've eaten four of them today. Best biscuit in the world. You can get them in Sainsbury's.

Thank you! That box of minis I got from Tesco was a ridiculous price, but after a trip to Sainsbury's I'll be in Oreo heaven!

If you a 'B&M' store, they seem to have them in stock permanently. Much cheaper than tescos

My local shop does packets of 4 of them for about 70p.. bit of a rip off but I can't seem to find them anywhere else (and the shop clearly imports them)

Whenever I'm in Spain, I bring back countless boxes of them..

Although I've got a sneaky suspicion my wholesaler may do them in large quantities.. (I'll check next time I'm there)

If you're ever in Milton Keynes at the Mk:Centre there is a shop there and they import the different flavoured ones like dark chocolate and stuff it's neat.

I tend to order them on-line or have a friend send them though...

I only usually see the regular ones at the supermarkets/newsagents, but maybe I'm not looking hard enough..

I have only just discovered the regular ones, I am not sure if I am ready to branch out to different flavours yet! In fact I wasn't even aware there are different varieties...how do they measure up to the originals? Are they really as nicer/nicer?

I wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of these :

I was in spain recently and brought back the white chocolate covered ones. There should be a law against them! They are addictive and so good. Cant'understand why the manufacturer, Nabisco, don't promote the whole range in the UK. I am certain they would be massive once more people found out.

Very cool shop but the stuff is bloomin' expensive!

Our Coffee Rep does a pack of 6 for £1.45

Burger King do their version of it all year round, the BK Fusion Cookies & Cream. A bit smaller than a McFlurry but the icecream is much nicer.

Sainsburys are the only place i have been able to get them from and they are truly gorgeous.

The first place that i ever had them was when i was stuck in ibiza airport for about 14 hours and they were my sugar rush savour and they were totally gorgeous.

mmmmm

I think i will have to buy some today whilst shopping
