... jam initially holds up as a jelly-like jam, with a bit of substance to it. The smell is pleasantly sweet, and not overbearing, and the first couple of times you use it, it tastes lovely and spreads nicely.
It is only after a few uses that things start to slide. The jam loses its consistency, the sweetness starts to increase, and the experience lessens in terms of quality. The jam gets a bit runny, spreading is harder and you don't feel like you're getting real jam on your bread or toast or whatever you may use it for...more

Tesco have developed a knack for cost cutting. One of the product lines to emerge from them over the past year is the Oak Lane brand, and while the standard is as hit and miss as their own Value branding, some of the products are real bargain finds.

Most of our major supermarket chains are struggling to meet the needs of their customers, constant price wars and an amazing amount of advertising campaigns seem to be in force. Every newspaper that you pick up has a page that is dedicated to supermarket price comparison. Even the Internet has sites that customers can visit to compare prices. Sometimes all of this discounting can be slightly misleading, if you tend to do your shopping in the one supermarket then what you gain on the swings you may well lose on the roundabouts and the average person who leads a busy life trying to juggle both work and family hasn't got the time to run around them all in the hopes of ...
