Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted October 31, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 John Lewis is supplying  customers with an empty Quality Street tin, and allowing them to fill it up with their favourite Quality Street chocolates from a pick ‘n’ mix style buffet. Is this a new thing this year, and should I have posted it in TIL? It’s a bloody marvellous idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Tommy! Posted October 31, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 It's not new, but it is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted October 31, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 Think they started doing it for Christmas last year, but a custom assortment costs about three times what you'd pay in a supermarket for a regular tub of the same size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted October 31, 2019 Moderators Share Posted October 31, 2019 It'd just be a tin of caramel swirls with the odd green triangle anyway. Quality Street is the shits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck that then. As a rule of thumb, Butch is somewhat right, they are generally a bit shit... except for a full tub of green triangles, I’d happily live on those fuckers.

Paid Members Carbomb Posted November 1, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted November 1, 2019 John Lewis would probably kick me out for taking all Green Triangles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briefcase Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 They had this last year in John Lewis (Oxford Street anyway) where you could also personalise tins with names on it which was a mini Christmas craze in the south east. I remember taking a look and the prices were ridiculous. Something like £20 for a tin with your (or chosen) name on it. I can't even remember if that was just the tin without the sweets, quite possibly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam O'Rourke Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Not to sound like a right sad bastard, but the changes to the Roses and Quality Street tins this year deserve a little scorn. You'll see what I mean when you open them up in December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gmoney Posted November 1, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted November 1, 2019 Roses have been shit for years. Since they got rid of the coffee cream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
