We are online!
After finally squeezing some funds out of the under-performing launch team, we are finally taking our message to the thrifty shoppers of Adelaide.
We will back soon with the thrifty ethos, thrifty purchasing rules and some great products that we here at thrifty have found and think will please your taste buds and your budget.
That's it from me, Banjo Banks, Junior Vice-President of Research and Development.
I better go and check with the Presidential Management Committee that they were happy with a slight speeding up of the launch sequence! (just by making this blog we are now tracking 10 years ahead of schedule!)

Its an exciting time to be alive...I will digress more in the coming days
ReplyDeleteActually I will kick things off...
ReplyDeleteA meat pie is a meat pie right...wrong
The world of frozen pies is littered with succelant imagery of pies sitting in bakehouses with large chunks of steak covered in rich hearty gravy, however many of these images are deceptive to the untrained eye, or in this case taste bud. I have road tested all the pies you will find in your Coles, Woolworths and Foodland freezers and have established a top 3 to eliminate the need for you to suffer through an unsavoury dinner after a tough day at the office. 3rd - Herbert Adams King Island Gourmet Beef Pie - A pie with a tall structure, with serious fillings of 38.5% meat, crispy pastry and a very complementary gravy. 2nd - Patties party pies - i know, i know not your standard dinner meal, but put half a dozen of these babies on your plate with your 3 veg and you wont be complaining (almost good enough to eat without sauce) and brings us to the number 1 - Clear winner - Sargents Extra Special Grain Fed Beef Pies (be aware - Sargents do produce to 'lower' quality pies, both good but not to this standard) tender beef, amazing rich gravy, perfectly seasoned - it has no rival. Do yourself a favour and place a couple of these in the oven tonight - you will be glad you did.
What initiative we have here from this young go getter Banjo Banks in really giving Thrifty legs. We are really excited here at Thrifty to see the idea sparked in the beautiful surrounds of the Blue Swimmer Room be brought to the people who appreciate taste and quality at an affordable price. We intend on showing the "do's" and "don'ts" of the generic brands in comparison to the originals, which can be a veritable minefield to the uninitiated. Rest assured though there are many gems to be found, along with many traps. We will look to point you in the right direction and steer you clear of the flavourless disappointments, to give you real confidence in brand selection. All products featured will have been tested and retested by members of our extensive market research team. Followers are invited to post their own ideas from their own experiences for others on the blog, pending verification from our expert team. I am excited to see the first of the many products receive the Thrifty tick of approval and guiding through our followers in these tough economic times.
