Hula Hoops

[securespark]

They may have been around since 1973, but I have just had a multipack. We all know that manufacturers are cheating ****s and put smaller quantities into their multipacks than their individual counterparts.

However, the last time I had a pack of HH's from a multipack, it weighed 25g and the the hoops were big enough to fit on my little finger.

This time, the pack weight is 24g and the hoops are much smaller, meaning you get a lot more in the bag and it looks like you have a much better deal.
What a swizz!!

I noticed something yesterday whilst being forced to shop with the missus.
Special offer on multi sachet boxed porridge. One box had 8 sachet and another had 9 sachet. One box, the sachet were 36 kg, the other 49.6 kg.
But priced the same?

Sorry cannot offer views on hula-hoops, the last one I tackled fitted around my waist and weighed approx 6 kg.

Anyone seen the Walker's cheesy mix ups advert? Notice the size of the bag when Jug Ears has hold of it and how the bag is almost full to the top. Something tells me that if I were to buy a bag, there wouldn't be as much content.

Or try them on something smaller than your finger

I know what you mean though...my other half has always liked maltesers and the box is now a bit smaller but hardly anything in them...

Fatter fingers.....

Maybe a little, but not that much!!!

Don't be so negative. Look at all that extra air.
