BIG D Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Best crisps money can buy - FACT. http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news..._as_sales_soar/ The credit crunch might still be biting, but Bradford-based Seabrook Crisps has just had very tasty record sales returns. In the first week of July, in spite of the recession, the Dunscombe Road company sold 142,000 boxes – or 6.8 million packets – of the famous crinkle-cut crisps. Managing director John Tague said: “Every business we deal with is up 30 to 50 per cent at the moment. “At the end of August we start selling into 50 Waitrose stores in the South. “We used to sell 120 million packets of crisps a year. In the next 12 months we want to do 370m packets. “Nationally, the crisps market is declining by about two per cent, but we are growing at 73 per cent. “The hot news off the press is that Aston Villa and Sheffield Wednesday football clubs have just agreed to take our crisps. Manchester United already do. “Bradford City don’t because they buy in supplies from another company. “The deal with Aston Villa and Sheffield Wednesday means that thousands more football fans will be trying our crisps. He agreed that comfort-eating only partly explains Seabrook’s lip-smacking success story. “More people are eating at home or going on picnics and a packet of crisps is picnic food,” he said. “Also we now sell into Asda nationally, which we weren’t doing last year. “We are hoping to do a deal with another major supermarket that will mean selling into all its outlets nationally.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto_Man Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I'm a Seabrook's addict, they are the finest crisps in the land. I actually order them by the box direct from the company, which has become disappointingly expensive since they joined the electronic age and put all the postal costs up. Asda have started stocking a more extensive range of flavours (particularly some decent flavoured multipacks) if anyone's interested. Oh and Spring Onion ftw by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latemodelchild Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Home bargains in Hillsborough has 6 packs of beefy for a quid. Maybe cheese and onion too. Maybe the club should buy a load and flog em with the 'official' supply. As long as riggys girlfriend's best mate's grandad doesnt find out we could afford a striker in a few years. Make it happen Lee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jimmyowl77 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I know they're nice but does anyone know why they're priced at a £1 a bag, not even grab bag size either. Can't see many people paying nearly 3 times the price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest aamaomao Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 The city of Florence eats, sleeps and breathes art. Examples of man’s artis-tic genius (天才) stand on nearly every street. Dozens of museums and art shops wait to be explored. Florence inWow Power LevelingItaly is an art lover’s paradise1.flyff power levelingDuring the Renaissance, Flo-rence was a paradise for artists themselves. In fact, the Renaissance began here more than 500 yearsflyff power levelingago. Before this time, art focused completely on religious (宗教的) subjects. Renaissance art began to include more variety. Artists painted pictures of ordinary people. They painted scenes from history and characters from Greek and Roman myths.2moons power levelingMichelangelo was the greatest of Florence’s artists. Visitors line up2 for hours at the Accademia Mu-seum for a look at his impressive David. This 140-foot-high statue (雕像) has become the ideal human figure of the Renaissance. David is an example of Michelangelo’s talent for sculpting people simply, yet powerfully.More of Michelangelo’s works can be seen in the great Palazzo Vecchio. Paintings and carvings of famous Italian artists fill the palace rooms. 2moons power levelingTo get a feel of modern Flo-rence, join the evening promenade (散步). This traditional feature of Italian life begins around 6:00 p.m. when everyone gets off work. Peo-ple stroll3 down the streets of central Florence to do last minute shopping or just chat with friends. Be sure to stroll past Perche Noi, home of the oldest and best ice cream in the city.knight online power levelingFlorence has given the world many great art treasures. Some stand in gardens and squares. Others line the walls of beautiful palaces. Still others are the palaces themselves. For art lovers, Florence is indeed paradise.Tasks:True or false.1.
