    Default Rotorua Pak n Save rocks!

    Popped in today to buy some dates as our Countdown has a poor selection and as I wondered around I noticed the Rotorua PnS has added British food to its international selection.

    It's far far better than the Westend New World and cheaper too. Jaffa cakes $3.88 compared to almost $7 in NW. Irn Bru too, dandelion and burdock and galaxy choc also made their way into my basket.
    Also saw Yorkshire tea, shredded wheat, curly wurly, double decker, walnut whip and cherry coke. The digestives were a bit pricey though at almost $9 a packet!

    Irn Bru has never tasted so good!

    Curly wurlys - I'd forgotten about them, but not the mess as all the chocolate falls off

    If you don't know already but the New World in Porirua has a large selection of British goods now including Curly Wurlys.

    It now has a very large selection, so bring plenty of money

    Just in case you don't know, most of the items are on the shelves above the freezers. Although apparently they have so much stock now that they are putting some items on the normal shelves with the kiwi goods.

    But is the genuine article, or the dodgy "made in Oz" version? And have you heard about Irn Bru's great "Bruzil" campaign - the plan is for Scots to make babies with Brazil to create a Samba McFootball team that will gub the world in the 2034 World Cup.
