Another user wrote, "Just buy the bigger bags in Tesco at the moment for £1 get five of them and still will have more then the contents in the tin." Another person was not satisfied with its content and wrote, "So it's a free tin. Think the chocolate adds up to about a fiver. Kids will enjoy them though."
