Noisy dogs and loud music especially low-note drumming
Is it me or is this too expensive? This is advertised on front page of this edition and boasts "rave reviews" and invites one to have a look at some but I could only find one fan. Many people have been disabled by Diabetes and are on low incomes - how can these folk (including pensioners) afford this product?
 
Hi Rob
Yes that is outrageous, but I think you pay for the brand name. I use this sweetener for baking, esp for the chocolate cakes as it gives best results, Zsweet = erythritol, and I buy it from ebay, its much cheaper there.
 
I have had type 2 diabetes since Nov.2007 and had a very sweetooth and infact still do. However I had to give up things like sugar and tried various sweetners without success. As I cannot take coffee without sugar and I now use "Slender" 100grms £3.45 and usually last about 2 wks - also keep "Slender Sweetner Tablets" to hand when out and about, and have no issues from my medical team regarding same.
 

Not sure it's that expensive? It's very light, so 680 grams is a lot. Knightwatch says he pays £3.45 for 100 grams of slender - that would be £23.46 for 680 grams.
 
Just looked on ebay, and it's from £20 to £30plus there for that amount!
 
Thankyou WhitbyJet. To the others - perhaps it's my 'frozen' pension that makes me so sensitive lol
