Morrisons Congleton ( I'm sure it's the same in all their stores) has a shelf full of the varying crimble baked goods, mincers, crimble pud, cake and Yule logs.
Way too fuckin early!

Surely that's pushing the legal boundaries...how long have they been available in store for £1.20? If I was retired I'd be straight onto the ASA.

Look closer at the label. It's an even worse case of mis selling than I think you realise.

Was delighted to see the Heston lemon ones on sale at Waitrose last night, but refrained from a purchase. Glad they've not bumped the price up either...
