I'm not on a particularly tight budget but I choose to buy the Snackrite multipacks (30 pks) of mixed flavour Crisps for £3.99. This works out at 13.3p per pack, I find the flavours, texture and quality "spot on" . To be honest I would begrudge paying more than twice as much for "brand name" Crisps when the difference in the end result is negligible. Just to backup my point.... If Aldi started selling its own homebrand Petrol at less than half the price of anywhere else..... would you buy it?

I think the worst price at the moment is Walkers French Fries, as you only get 17g per bag compared to the 25g for crisps, so they are ridiculously expensive for what you actually get. It's one of the few types of snacks for which I have never seen a copy.

If you have a Farmfoods near you, have a lookout for the Slabs Thick & Big Crisps range, when they say they are big.. They Are BIG! Tried them the other day and Christ I couldn't believe what I saw! Very nice they were most definitely. I saw a few flavours aka Cheese & Onion, Slightly Sea Salted, Salt & Vineger and lastly Roast Chicken. They are avaliable either as 80g packs at £1 a go or £2.99 for a 160g bag, confusing prices from Farmfoods to be honest however if you see them? Give them a go!

I like your channel mate, you caught my attention with that polish canned spam video and I like your idea of reviewing products that would normally be overlooked by other channels. And of course you're spot on, you often just pay for the brand.

I always bought Walkers Crisps from Asda, but with prices going up I started shopping at Aldi and Find many of their (knock off brands) for snacks really quite good and a hell of a lot Cheaper. Snackrite Ridged crisps are really good.

With Walkers you do get consistency. Sometimes the Snackrite will be really sgrongly flavoured and sometiems you'll hardly get any flavour. Sometimes you'll get scraggy little crisps and sometimes they're fine. Personally they're just for me to have with a sandwich, and I'm not willing to pay all that for a Walkers crisp, when most of the price is going towards paying for their adverts.

I shop at Aldi as its really close and the Snackrite munchies are pretty good for the price. I'm currently consuming a bag of 'Melts'. Same as Skips and taste just as good. Think I paid about 79p for a six pack.

I buy Aldi crisps. They are good and much cheaper. As has been said their version of Quavers is very good. Also thier version of Monster munch. I also like there crincle cut light ones that are less calories. And my all time favourit ones are Tudor pickled onion sadly long gone. They were the best pickled onion ever. Seabrooks are really good too.

My favourite of all is the Aldi Specially Selected range. Absolutely bang on. More expensive than the ordinary Snackrite, but still far cheaper than the Walkers and other top brand equivalent.

Walkers quality varies depending on if its new or old potatoes just like a chip shop does. They also own golden wonder so do produce other brands of crisps as well. Generally i do prefer walkers over cheaper brands. Currently walkers at tesco are £1.65 again for 6.

I've been watching your videoes for a while Gareth, and when I saw the thumbnail said the video was over ten minutes, I found myself thinking 'Ten minutes about a couple of packets of crisps?!'. Was it worth watching? Oh yes!! Every minute! Your videos always are! Best wishes to you and yours!

Just a heads up, Only my first watched video of yours so not sure if its mentioned anywhere but i can hear ambient noise not sure if its possibly a fan or what not a slight ringing and air disturbance. Could possibly be an easy fix with microphone. You can identify it by pausing and starting the video over and over again.

Aldi Snackrite crips are great, in a 6 pack of Cheese & Onion you will get bags that are stuck to the outer packaging so you have to rip them apart to get to them, some which will be STALE, some that will taste plan or just salt and normally all crushed to death.

As far as crisps go im a massive fan of the Roysters T-bone steak crisps. They are silly expensive (£1.19/100g) but are great in texture and taste. The biggest issue i have with them is that the single pack size is only 21g.

I bought a multipack of crisps, in the pack was one pack of 'Lays' crisps, just for giggles I sent a complaint, they gave me a voucher and explained they make crisps for many different 'names' look it up there a few big food processor plants much of our food/snacks are all made in the same place, some might rant how on brand is better than the other, but in a lot of cases they ALL come of the same production lines. Which opens up another issue, if one brand is cheaper, who is jacking up the price and scamming us.

Here in Australia, our name brand Smiths crisps are literally Aldi brand Sprinters....lol They accidentally bagged the small bags in one big bag in a batch once proving this fact! Loads of their Aldi brands are literally the real name brand!! A handful of their products are crap such as Gravy Powder....

Same in the UK with most pre pack foods and ready meals. Most roll out of the same factory gates, just in different packaging(hopefully). I think Kellogg's say that they don't make cereals for anyone else.
