Potato puffs. The fat ones in the red and white bags, ready salted flavour, (not the skinny things that you sometimes see nowadays with strange flavours.) I remember when i was in the infants school they used to sell them at breaktimes, it was a real treat!!

Icebreaker & potato puffs.  I don't remember either of those.  Blame my sheltered upbringing!  ;D

Cremola Foam lemon, loved that stuff.

I remember two sherbet sweets, one with the liquorice dip and one with a lollipop dip.  I liked the lollipop one.  Didn't like sucking sherbet through a liquorice straw. 

Gobstoppers.  Only ever had one in my life.  I got so fed up sucking it I threw it away.  ;D

I used to have 10p pocket money which bought a Swisskit and a Bunty comic for me (9.1/2p) and a Victor comic with an Avalanche bar for my brother (10.1/2p)
