The contents will be leftover items from shops and warehouses, usually on the verge of being out of date. This week, the Pantry organisers are going shopping for items to fill a Christmas Hamper which will cost members £5. Members had to order and pay in advance so that they knew how much stuff to buy. Needless to say, I've ordered one.  
My question to you is - what do you think will be in my Christmas Hamper? This is all I know :-

Christmas Bonus Hamper for existing members only.  The contents will vary but we will be group-purchasing some extra nice bits and bobs for a Merrier Christmas.

I'm collecting it on Saturday so the answer will be revealed then.

There's the omnivores, vegetarians & vegans, various religious persuasions...........What can you buy for a fiver, even at wholesale prices?
I'm guessing mince pies, chocolate, fruit (tangerines), nuts and crisps, crackers (for cheese not for pulling), shortbread biscuits.
