Hi

I have been using these for a month now and i love them esp the strawberry one, i can never finish the choc one. At 99p each they are a good lunch replacement at work when i haven't had time to make one and they don't affect my bs at all..two thumbs up from me..now if only they could extend the range :)
 
After logging into tesco, the link showed a load of tights! Tried searching on tesco but couldn't find anything.. :(

Also, does anyone know where I can get coconut oil from? I've tried tesco's (they've discontinued it), asda and sainsbury's with no luck.
 
Tights????? no idea how that happened I was looking at the shakes and copied the shortcut sorry , will try again
