"I haven't been married long, but experience has taught me this .. . ** When you first start housekeeping these days it seems impossible to make your house allowance cover all that is required . . . the desire to economise caused me to make more than a few blunders at first, but after a while I realised that my head had uses other than to wear a hat on. I started to ' take stock' of what I was getting for the money I spent . . . tea came in for *' particular attention, as the young fellow I am married to is as fond of a good cup of tea as I am. We had been putting up with.'cheap' tea because we thought it saved money . . . not because we liked it . . . then a friend of mine gave me a tip. She said that some of my visitors hadn't been very complimentary about the tea I gave them . . suggested that I should get ' Amber Tips ' . . said that * Amber Tips ' was not only the best tea but that it was also the cheapest in the end as you didn't have to use as much as you do with so called cheap teas. " We never have any but * Amber Tips ' now . . . and we save by having it. What is even more important, this experience with 'Amber Tips' Tea h*s taught me that a ' cheap' price can make a ' dear ' purchase."
