I was in Stroud at the weekend and Sainsburys had nearly all cider on offer... Has anyone been in one in Sheffield recently? Has it got the same offers do you know? Being stranded up by the airport means I can't easily pop out and check.

Cheers

Ooh, I've got a link for this.

And here it is...

I saw that they'd got MAgners cans on offer but I didn't look how much they were. This was Archer Road branch.

I'm tempted to ask Slick if she likes pork in cider. Do you think I should?

Magners.... tut! They had nearly all cider on offer, Westons Organic at £1.25, 20-30% off most of them.
WHY didn't I stock up.
:(

Mmmm- Westons Special Reserve. Lethal but lovely.

Ooooooh! I'm so sorry! It was the very specific thread title which said "Do Sainsburys have cheap snobby cider" that I must have missed!:suspect:

That's not an answer.

Just because you can only drink babysham and snowballs does not mean the rest of us are in early retirement!

And what's all this "pear cider" nonsense? Surely every connoisseur knows that the equivalent of cider but made from pears instead of apples is "perry"?

That's not an answer.
:mad:

Sorry- I don't shop in Sainsburys but I am partial to a decent cider. You have my sympathies, whereas I'd have missed the offer anyway.

Theres actually somewhere selling strawberry cider :loopy: !!!!!
Now whats the real name for that , i dont think there is one is there !!!

There's a shop near me does some delicious cider called Frosty Jacks really cheap. I always buy four litres and a pack of Rennies on my way home from work.

Jacksons had an offer on cans of Strongbow the other day, 8 for £6.50 :D Not sure if it's still on though.

Wrongbow is 8 for a fiver in most places... Cheers for info tho.

Get yourself to the Dram Shop in Commonside and purchase their finest bottle of Kerisac - A fine Breton cider which is both tasty and would kill an alcoholic wildebeest :D

Very, very good stuff.

Tescos are selling apple beer now :suspect:

asda and morrisons 36 cans strongbow for £16

they have a 3 for £20 8x 500ml of magners, stella 15x330ml or carling 15x440ml

Yeah that bugs me too. It's like rebranding wine as 'grape beer'. :huh:
