No it was a joke, you mentioned about price. You can reuse them.

Just my opinion and I don't know about the corn but I would just buy the Enterprise or Korda stuff, at least you know what you are getting. Example being I just bought some sinkers off them and they are truly awful, just hard bits of plastic, not soft like the Korda ones and very difficult to slide on the hooklink without stripping the coating, back to the Korda ones. Their swivels are cheap and do the job as well as any others but there is a reason some other products are more expensive elsewhere.

The Korda stuff is £2.69 for 12 pcs so 22p a pop.
The Bank Tackle stuff is £1.89 for 10 pcs so 19p a pop.
Imo you're worrying about nothing mate. The hook bait is the bit that catches the fish. It is completely and utterly CRITICAL to catching kippers.
I saw in the classifieds you've just put Weston handles on your 4 sets of reels. But worrying about 3 pence on a piece of fake corn? It'll cost more than 3p of your time just to write the post buddy.

If its too expensive for you, don't use it. It should be banned anyway

I feel your pain mate.
Years ago I bought this big cheapo box of mixed artificials from the local bargain shop. It had all sorts in it (corn, maize, fake pellets etc). None of them floated, straight in the bin.
Not worth saving on something so important as hookbaits imo buddy.

I thought I was tight, but even I wouldn't worry about 3p per piece of plastic.
