If you buy a week or month supply then they're the same price as all the other packs. Not sure which other bars you could have as am alternative but Atkins bars etc are, I think, even more expensive.

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
Obstacles are things a person sees when he takes his eyes off of the goal.

Lost just under 3 stone on various diets in 2011-2012.
Restarting Slim and Save Jan 2013 to lose the rest!


Many of the bars are Dietimeal bars (not to be confused with Dietisnack bars) which are sold in a number of places - such as the low carb megastore website. im not sure how the prices compare though. I remeber reading something on the VLCD forum about a site where all of the packs are £1.20 irrespective of how many you buy - and they sell all of the Dietimeal bars too. Can't remember the name of the company but take a look at the forum - it was in the last week or two.
Reached goal of 130 lbs to lose.
On maintenance I'm a little higher than I would like to be...
It was the SML diet, but the prices seem to have gone up to £1.35:
