Advantages: Real life stories, lots of competitions, great price, sold each week. Disadvantages: None.
Pick Me Up is a magazine whose tagline is 'More real life for your money' and at just 68p per week for a 67 page magazine (on average) it really is fantastic value with you paying around 1p per page.
The magazine contains real life stories, fashion for high street prices, competitions, puzzles, photographs sent in etc.

Advantages: More than one variety. Disadvantages: High in sugar.
Upon a late night visit to my local corner shop on the quest for "treats", I noticed this bag of beauty's, nestled inconspicuously next to the revels.
After a closer inspection I realised that this particular pack contained all mt husbands favourites, so of course this also warrants a review!
The product I will now review is "Rowntree's, pick & mix".
The bag that these sweets come in is very colourful and eye catching, it consists of thick diagonal orange, purple, yellow and green "stripes".
In the centre of the pack is a picture of all the different fruit flavours that is incorporated into the sweets, the strawberries look particularly appetising!
Across this picture is the product brand and name in thick, bold white writing, with the three sweets in the pack being named beneath this with a picture of each sweet.
Finally ...
Advantages: Good Stories and loads of regular features. Disadvantages: None
