New Instore: Pyjamas at Primark - Reese's Peanut Butter & Pringles!

Not quite an official grocery gem but I couldn't resist posting this fun lounge wear from Primark. So far I've spotted Reese's Peanut Butter Cup and Pringles styles. I was almost tempted by the Reese's ones!

Reese's Peanut Butter Cup pyjamas at Primark - T-shirt £5.00p and Bottoms £8.00p.

The Pringles design is not quite as cute as the Reese's, but I do prefer the longer sleeves. Besides, who wouldn't want to sit around eating Pringles whilst also looking like a Pringle?

Review: Pringles Tortilla Chips Nacho Cheese

I picked a few of the new Pringles Tortilla Chips flavours yesterda. I decided to go for the Sour Cream and Nacho Cheese varieties. There are two other flavours available also - Original and Spicy Chilli. I don't really buy Pringles very often but the boys in the Grocery Gems household are all big fans of tortilla chips and they were looking forward to giving these new Pringles Tortilla Chips a try.

Everyone was keen to try the Nacho Cheese flavour first, although I was a bit reluctant, mainly because I hate Tangy Cheese Doritos and I thought they might be similar. Luckily the cheese flavour here is nothing like the Doritos one. It's less overpowering but is still robust enough to satisfy any cheese fan. The texture of these Pringles Tortilla Chips is really interesting too, they have the same type of crunch as most Pringles, which is not as hard or crunchy as regular tortilla chips. They have the distinctive Pringles appearance and texture (great for dipping!) but all the flavour of corn based snacks.

Overall, we did enjoy these Pringles Tortilla Chips and I'm sure they will be very popular. I would probably buy them again but the only negative I have is the long ingredients list which includes MSG. 

Grocery Gems Verdict: Pringles Tortilla Chips Nacho Cheese

RATING: 7 out of 10.
Buy them again?: Yes.
Vegetarian: Suitable for vegetarians.
Purchased: Asda. 
Price: £1.49p.

New Instore Megapost Part 3: Pringles Tortilla Chips, Drinks & Yogurts

The last new instore post of the day! A massive thank you to Sun L. for sending me most of the photos in this post. 

Pringles Tortilla Chips: Thank you to everyone who informed me about these and again to Sun L. for the awesome photo. I haven't bought Pringles in a while but I'll definitely be adding these to my next Asda order. There are Sour Cream and Original varieties. I can imagine these Pringles Tortilla Chips will be very popular with my eldest son and his friends! £1.00p at Asda.

Robinsons Squashed Pear & Blueberry: This is a fairly new flavour for this range, along with Citrus and Tropical varieties. £1.98p at Asda.

Robinsons rebranding and new Lemon & Mango flavour: On the subject of Robinsons squash, Britvic also announced earlier this year that they are phasing out all full-sugar products for this brand. All Robinsons fruit squashes will now be "no added sugar" and will feature the tagline "Real Fruit in Every Drop". There are also new squash flavours such as Lemon & Mango and Orange & Raspberry.

Although I can understand the reasoning behind this decision (falling sales of sugary squash), I'd prefer to still have the choice of real sugar or artificial sweeteners. I also dislike the false emphasis on the FRUIT on the front of the bottle for a product that has only 6% fruit content (5% Lemon and 1% Mango). £1.59p at Asda.

Relentless Mango Ultra: I know literally nothing about canned energy drinks. Never had one. I get my kicks the old fashioned way - coffee. £0.89p at Asda.

Nakd Coconut Bliss Fruit & Nut Nibbles: I really want to try this new range of Fruit & Nut Nibbles from Nakd, especially this Coconut Bliss flavour. £0.80p at Asda.

Nakd Fruit Salad Fruit & Nut Nibbles: The Fruit Salad variety is clearly a nod to the famous sweets of the same name. Kev's Snack Reviews has a review of these and also the Tooty Fruity flavour here. £0.80p at Asda.

Nakd Strawberries & Cream Fruit & Nut Nibbles: This is the second flavour I'd like to try. Apparently these Fruit & Nut Nibbles can be used in baking or as a topping for yogurt or cereal. There are also other flavours; Mint Humbug, Salted Caramel, and Toffee Treat. £0.80p at Asda.

The Laughing Cow Light with Cheddar: I know these have been around for a little while now and I've actually already bought them. They're a tasty addition to The Laughing cow Light triangles cheese range that already includes Blue Cheese and Emmental varieties. £0.94p at Asda.

Nesquik Milk Slice - Milk & Yogurt Filling: The Nesquik Milk Slice Chocolate variety used to be popular with my kids when they were younger (and I quite liked them too!). There is now a new Milk & Yogurt version available too. £1.00p at Asda.

Liberté Strained Greek Style Yogurts on a Mango layer: The Liberté range of strained yogurts is one of my favourites and I'm excited to see a couple of new flavours being released. Mango is always a winning yogurt flavour so I can't wait to try this one! £2.39p at Asda.

Liberté Strained Greek Style Yogurts on a Pear layer: I'm also eager to try the Pear flavour. Pear yogurts can be a bit more hit and miss but it's still a flavour that I enjoy in general. I hope to review these soon. £2.39p at Asda.

McCain Spicy Peri-Peri Fries: Ones to look out for! McCain are launching several new products including these Spicy Peri-Peri Fries.

McCain Mash Machines: These limited edition transport potato shapes are sure to be popular with little kids everywhere. Other new products from McCain include a limited edition American BBQ Wedges and Steakhouse Ridge Cut Fries. Let me know if you spot any of these instore!
