Pot of Gold - Lottery tickets

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help, I've managed to finish my Christmas shopping early this year (which is AMAZING as I normally do it all on Christmas eve!)...
However, I want to give my parents and in-laws (to be) lottery tickets in a 'Pot of Gold' (filled with chocolate coins), as suggested on the main site, as an added extra. I've looked around, online and in some shops in town, but haven't been able to find any golden coloured pots.
Does anyone know where I can find suitable (and reasonably priced!) gold pots?
Many thanks in advance!

Thanks!
I did think about that but, I was hoping to find some cheap pots already coloured.
I'm going to have a look in Au Naturale tomorrow; if I don't find any there I will get spraying!
Thanks again I'm always saving pennies for a rainy day :dance:

I'd suggest a local garden centre, the closest I think you could get would be a plant pot? This time of year the garden centres usually have a good selection... Good luck in your search... great idea btw!0

if you dont like the look of spray paint why dont you buy a small plant pot then buy some gold leaf... with a bit of practise you could make the pot look old by staggering/breaking the gold leaf... hope they turn out as you would like 0
