    Me and the boys caught a bunch of mackerel tonight so we filleted them and put them in the freezer. We'll trade 30 fillets for a case of beer and a bag of crisps.
    Offer good for up to 2 cases.
    Cheers

    Would crisps now, beer later work for you and the boys?

    How many packets of crisps (beer maybe later) would you accept for the freezer plus piscatorial contents only?

    Can you deliver within the EU?

    Any warranty on the freezer?

    Apparently there is a biblical amount of mackerel on the west coast at the moment.

    So, OP, how many cases for the empty freezer? You can keep the fillets... :)

    Biblical is right! But it takes a car, petrol, the right fishing gear, a few friends who arent afraid to get their hands dirty, and someone willing to do all the filleting on the spot, in order to stock the freezer. We were pulling them in 6 at a time.

    We can easily keep them and eat them all ourselves over the next couple months. But it makes for a much cooler story if we traded them for beer :)
