I have been enjoying old fashioned cheapo snacks for over 20 years now.

My favourite 10p crisps are Quarterbacks (supposedly American cheesebuger flavoured!), Onion Rings and Oink! (bacon flavoured rings). I also like the 20p pickled onion Space Raiders. Wham bars and Refresher bars are tasty, and I am partial to the odd Fruit Salad sweetie. I used to enjoy Mojo's in the 80's but I don't think they are available anymore, though I could be wrong.

What do you like?

I buy loads of asda choc - we either have it plain or use it to make traybake, along with their smart price dg biccies (mmm such a delish treat for under 50p for a massive tray full!)

We sometimes have the asda smart price ready salted crisps - they remind me of the ones I used to have at school, but I usually prefer to get brand crisps - monster munch and wotsits in the house at the mo

No, you can get slightly larger 20p packs.

However, at my local shop, the small packs are now 15p.

Cheese and onion square crisps (I'm eating some now mmm) and salt n vinegar discos - such a lovely texture - a nice crunch.

I also like square crisps and also you used to be able to get potato puff type things in 10p bags. I haven't seen them for ages now.

Cheese puffs or balls. The cheaper and nastier and dirtier the better. They are my guilty pleasure. Asda do excellent cheese balls, and my local corner shop has some dirt-cheap cheese puffs in psychedellic packaging from a brand I've never heard of. And they're bluddy delicious.

Where are they! It must be ten years since I last saw them anywhere.
