My culinary experiment today was very successful. I took one microwave sausage roll, heated it as per instructions, then took it out of its sleeve and air fried it for 5 minutes. It went from a 3/5 yum yums to a 4/5 yum yums.

(Please note that 5/5 yum yums is reserved for homemade sausage rolls only).

Oh golly, I could go for a basic sausage roll.

Going to do some low level food shopping today, trying to figure out what I want.

I think I'm going to pick up some 2 minute noodles and some cocktail frankfurts. Not sure what else to be honest. Wouldn't mind some party pies or sausage rolls but not sure I could fit them in my freezer at the moment.

Always wait for the party pies and sausage rolls to go on special then you pounce. Also Mrs Mac,'s microwave sausage rolls are half price every few weeks. Something like $1.25 - $1.50 compared to $3. Aldi also have microwave sausage rolls that are exactly like Mrs Mac's.

Party pies goes on special? I don't think I've seen the Aldi ones go on special? I'll have a look at the sausage rolls as well when I'm at Aldi this afternoon.

No the party pies at Coles and Woolies go on special. I don't know if Aldi has party pie and sausage rolls packs but they do have individual microwave sausage rolls if you have limited space in your freezer.

I know Aldi have party pie packs, not sure about sausage rolls to be honest. I'll have a look this arvo.

I don't think I've seen party pies go on special deep enough that made me want to go get them at Woolies.I'll have to keep a better eye out on them.

Oh yeah always wait for the half price packs.
