How many of these old Cadbury wrappers do you remember?

5p for a Flake? Bargain!

IF YOU WERE spending your pocket money on chocolate bars in the early or mid seventies, then some of these might look very familiar to you.

Cadbury Ireland has shared this image of some retro treats, including Curly Wurlys for 3p and an intriguing Apple Jack bar for 6p.

Here’s a seventies ad for that 3p Curly Wurly.

Is it just us or were they much bigger back in those days?
