Andy Smith Olympic Illustration

Have you been into a Waitrose this week?

If not, hot foot it. Do a Usain Bolt impression and make haste.

And pick up the Waitrose Weekend free paper (before Thursday when they replace it with the next edition).

Because on the cover you will find a fantastic illustration created by Andy Smith. It represents a city scape of London incorporating all the countries competing in the Olympic games, even Palau.

Pure genius.

Cadbury Creme Egg Bonanza

OK, I should be on diet but who could resist?

In Waitrose today a single creme egg cost 55p.

In Waitrose today a 3 pack of creme eggs cost £1.55. No great saving but convenient and stops them rolling around in your handbag.

In Waitrose today a 6 pack of creme eggs cost £1.52. *pauses to do the mental arithmetic* Yes, folks, 6 creme eggs are cheaper than 3. Now I'm no economist but surely someone in Waitrose will eventually spot the mistake. Funnily enough the stock of 6 packs seems to be more depleted than the stock of 3 packs.

Buy 16 boxes, my brain said. Buy none, my waistline said.
I bought one box. You see I am weak when it comes to anything chocolate related.

But there is more.

After tea, we open the box and.......

HA!

I love it when I win x
