My Tesco, in High Wycombe had the same! They had quite a few of both the
Islander
set, which I didn't buy, and the 6899's, of which I had bought one (but have
still
yet to open, maybe I might now!). The 6899's were only 5.99, which is about
half-
price, I believe. Maybe I might go tomorrow, need a bit of food......
