    Duke, I think the majority of us get it off e bay as its relativley cheap compared to buying it at florists.
    Just search cellophane and i'm sure you will find it.
  • I'm just about to put the finishing touches to a black bucket containing all sorts of car wash goodies plus extra bits for the car.

    Before I wrap with cellaphane and bows, does anyone have a nice little poem/ditty/limerick re car washes?

    Thanks. :beer:

    Here is a hamper which I made today for teachers gifts ( made 4 in total )
    Wine was £1 offer in Asda.
    Options 2 X 25p, mini mallows about 30p & pure cocoa ( decanted form jar ) bundled together & bound with a printed piece of card on the pc.
    A Tesco notebook, 44p covered with a few nice pieces of paper & some ribbon.
    Green & Blacks chocolate £1.25 ( offer of 2 for £2.50 in Tesco )
    All organised in a display box which I got free from Tesco ( they use them to display christmas goods in just now ) & wrapped in cellophane with curly ribbon.

    this ones for my sister in laws boyfriend


    this is my last one I have ran out of ribbon
    but will put something in the centre of the bow
    this one inc the bucket £7.80

    best buy on this was the Grumpy Old Men book
    bought in asda today for 30p

    worst buy on this,the bucket was a £1 dearer
    than Au Natrual.(but would cost a lot more than
    a £1 to drive to nearest Au Natural.)

  • hogshead, I would be over the moon if one of my pupils brought this in for me, unfortunately I am training to be a secondary school teacher, and we get nothing!!!
