<p>When buying dried noodles from Spices of India beware: when it says BOGOF it only means for the first 12 ietms of that type. So you can pay much more than you expect. For reference, Indomie dried noodles are 38p/pkt individually in Cho Mee, Mill Road and £14.99 for a box of 40 from The Asian Cookshop (i.e. 37.5p/pkt), but you do get free delivery when ordering online.
