Thread: Surprising or shocking pro-point finds....

silly sausages! WW ones are actually 2pp for one! not 1pp as some places are listing!!! so confusing!

i had a snickers duo and was horrified to find out it was 14 pp. i worked out that 100g of walls low fat icecream with a large crunchie crushed was near half that. i think i know what ill be having from now on!!!

Its turning up some surprises isn't it? I went to group last night but am going to nip into another tonight just to buy a calculator as it all seems a bit hit n miss on esource at the moment.

1/4 of an Artic Roll is 4 pp....

This makes me very happy indeedy!!

Just make sure you check it. Don't trust esource

It is a whole new ball game, we should proceed with caution I feel..

I think the artic roll is one we can trust - the Discover points were shockingly low too for it!

But yes, better to recalculate the lot...... I shan't be buying the "Shop" guide either I don't think!

You have more points to spend tho!

actually yesterday I bought 2 rump steaks fillets roughly 225 grams and I had to split one in half with my fiancé (the second one is in the freezer split in half too...) because they were massive! We had half of it, 6 pp for him and 5pp for me (his half was a bit bigger), I did some roasted potatoes for him and I had some veggies with 1 tsp of oil, and a dessert, and we were nice and full in the end of it. Even he was, and he's a man

I was shocked that 1 slice of WW cheddar cheese was 1pp! It's really great because cheese hasn't increased in value too much (because of its protein content) and I LOVE cheese!

Also, 25g of mixed nuts are only 3pp. They were 2 old points, so they haven't increased much, and they're another kind of food I absolutely LOVE

I was going to say I ahve steak quite alot and think they're good value. Steak and roasted veg is one of my faves, and a relatively low point meal I think

Im a bit piffed that beans are so much higher, as they are not just carbs but protein too. I mean all beans, not just baked beans. I used to love beans and egg for brekkie, but 2 eggs and 150g of baked beans eats 8 points of my 29!!! grr. This morning I have had an egg, slice of white bread, lf clover and tomato.
I need to tweak my old brek, and see how i go.

the bisto frozen chicken and veg pie ( mash top ) is 6pp which is really good as it's really filling and warming when cold like today and to say chicken hotpot ww ones is 7pp and is alot smaller than this

4 sprays of low cal cooking spray, frylite etc, is now 1pp. Suprised by this as i doubt anyone counts it.

I spotted this to but in my shop guide it says 4 sprays is 0.
I think that unless im using loads (which i normally do!) I will not count it as always...not sure
