Wasn't being tight, just didn't see a poppy seller.
So now I've bought 5 bars of Sainsbury's Christmas Advert Chocolate and put them on Ebay.
I'll donate a mimimun of 75% of the sale price to the British Legion.
More if I can. I'm not doing it for personal profit.

2 have minimum £3 bids on them already :)

Post by: therealjr on November 23, 2014, 08:24:40 PM: I have to say I'm a bit at a loss why people are overpaying for a £1 bar of chocolate but I don't suppose the British Legion will care !!!

Nice one Barry!!

Pat yourself on the back JR. And cheers :)
