Can't seem to find Anchor block butter for sale in any supermarkets. Are they still on sale in the UK?

Thanks Mamyalynne. I see you can buy it online but it's not stock in any of my local supermarkets, shame, as I don't buy my groceries online.
I only shop online so I can't comment on what is the shelves at the moment, have you asked in store?
Mysupermarket.co.uk (which is usually highly reliable) is showing it as in stock at Sainsbury's and Asda but only in the larger 500g pack. (£3.35 and £3.40 respectively). It's not listed in that size for any other supermarket and the 'standard' (250g) pack isn't listed at all,although the Arla Foods website shows that they're still producing it in both sizes.
butter so expensive these days, i remember a a child i was given marg.
but then again kids could not differentiate then, hunger focuses the tastebuds

Apparently there is a shortage of milk. Dairy Farmers have cut back production because they are being paid so little for their product.

// Britons could have little cream to go with their mince pies this Christmas as the UK is heading for a butter and cream shortage, the boss of dairy giant Arla has warned.

Peder Tuborgh told the BBC Today programme the shortage was caused by not enough milk being supplied by farmers to make the products, which are expected to rise in price as a result. //
Gromit, dont they say that every year, along with spuds, i guess in my dotage i do not see it anymore, new lenses needed
We sell it, both salted and unsalted, in Morrisons - 250g
If I Google cream shortage, the head of Arla was predicting one LAST year...hmmmm! I guess it is a yearly occurrence.
Fender my children could differentiate between butter and marge. I can't remember the marge that was advertised as tasting like butter and you couldn't tell the difference, but my brood could, every time.
Regarding the milk production this year I understand some of the shortage was caused by the lack of rain.
Both salted and unsalted, 250g and 500g in plentiful supply in Sainsbury's supermarket in Waterlooville this morning.
@ LB @ 21.03. Stork margarine, advertised by Bruce Forsyth. You could taste the difference a mile off.
Anyway, why bother with Anchor? There's only one butter and that's Lurpak.
Leslie Crowther did the advert as well.
The reason people couldn't tell the difference was because it was spreaded so thin.
Stocked in my local Co Op, but expensive, compared with other spreads, so only used for baking normally, but there's always some left over yummmy
It is available in the Co-Op in Cleobury Mortimer currently.

(Well, it would be if it were open at 00:09....)
Having been brought up immediately after the war I prefer butter
Thanks to those who tried so hard to find a substitute
Butter was rationed, margarine wasn't.
You'll never put a better bit of butter on your knife :))
