They are a bit expensive...

Always wanted Twinkies

I plan to leave it in my vault and it will turn into beer

Headshot · 04-07-2012 9:40pm

For the twinkies
Im kind of put off by the "***Shortdated Product - Product may be close to or slightly past its best taste date.***"

Thanks OP, just ordered a 12 pack of Coke and a 12 pack of Pepsi and saved €8.50 on postage. Can't wait to taste them as they should taste and not the crap you get over here. My teeth mightn't thank me though!

Caught up in a loop when trying to pay for items..
I choose "Pay with Credit Card or Debit Card" and nothing happens, if i choose "Proceed to check out" instead, it brings me back to my address details..

.

Downloaded newest java, changed browsers.. same.

God Dang, I WANT SWEEEETSS!

(Especially now, as i've just spent 20 minutes eyeballing everything, and it gave me a serious hankerin' for some Candy.)

PayPal works fine.Really disappointed that they don't have whole chicken in a can

I just used PayPal and it was fine.

Headshot · 09-07-2012 10:02pm

sorry for the bump but does american soda actually tell ya when your order has shipped?

unklerosco · 09-07-2012 11:21pm

I got a note from Parcel2go.com who I assume are the couriers they use to ship the order, mine shipped last Fri..

Allyall · 10-07-2012 2:01am

I don't like Paypal. So i try not to use them when i don't need to. I didn't need any of this stuff, so, i didn't use paypal.

Seem Very expensive on shipping..

Before i've even ordered it's £2.50

Add two cans of american (any) soda and a small (52g) pack of milk duds, shipping goes up to £4.92STG.

For two cans and Small Milk duds = £8.72 :eek: (€11.00)
Without adding anything else.

Not taking anything from the OP. 4th of July With free shipping, it would be £3.77 (€4.75) - Which isn't too bad, for American "Candy" that you can't get over here.

....But their shipping is ridiculous for the rest of the year.

I've used these guys once: http://www.americansweets.co.uk/

Had to get big heavy cans of stuff for an American thanksgiving. I think they used a courier which have standardized prices for heavy parcels like 30kg for £18 (from memory). Anyhow, it was expensive but for a one-off it did the job and we got all the goodies we required and then some.

d@rk l0rd · 10-07-2012 9:30pm

Has anyone who booked stuff on the 4th July using the offer received their items yet? I haven't heard a thing back since making my booking! :rolleyes:

purplestar77 · 10-07-2012 10:49pm

Yes, I ordered on 4th and got my package on Friday 6th ... super fast!

d@rk l0rd · 10-07-2012 11:28pm

I haven't heard a thing from them. Got an automated email just after putting in my order and a receipt from PayPal. I'll email them tomorrow if I haven't heard anything! :rolleyes:

Cherry_Cola · 11-07-2012 1:24am

Haven't heard anything from them either, will give them another day or two.
