Who sells Toddler's cutlery at a low price?

Hi Everyone,

I am looking to buy toddlers cutlery for under £2. It would have knife, fork & spoon in the set. Who would sell this?

There is a pound shop that sells knife & spoon for £1 but I am really looking for the full set that has a knife. I have tried Mothercare, Adsa, Tesco & Superdrug but no luck. My local Tesco did a set but they no longer do this. Ikea sell a plastic set but they have really shape & pointed fork to it.

Can you help? :rolleyes:

    You say you tried Asda - I got a set from Asda a couple of weeks ago. It is a metal fork, spoon and knife with rubber handles and they cost me £1.99.

    I have also recently seen a set with a knife, fork and two spoons - metal with rubber handles in Poundland. I didn't get any but they had loads so maybe worth checking out.

    I've got the Ikea stuff and it seems OK to me - it is cheap, but after looking at it I can see what you mean by the sharp forks. The spoons are also quite big for a little ones mouth as well, but OK for pre schoolers. I got lots of small knives and forks from British Airways back in the days when you got mini 'proper' cutlery. I had a friend who used to fly regularly and he used to bring it to me on a regular basis. He didn't drink, so he justified taking the cutlery in the price of his flight! ;)

    Hi HappySad,

    Is it the Kalas Cutlery Set that you have seen from IKEA? 18 pieces for 99p.

    I've got some toddler cutlery from Ikea that has a plastic handle but metal "top bits" - knife, fork and spoon. Fork isn't sharp and neither's knife, but they go through the dishwasher fine and the kids seem to like them. Can't find them on the website but they must have been cheap otherwise I wouldn't have bought them!

    woolworths always worth a try and matalan ive had sets from there they sell loads of kiddies things for eating. good luck!
  • I got a knife fork metal set from Asda for £1 (farm animals on handles - white plastic) - they are in the kitchenware section as opposed to the baby section - which has cutlery at about double the price!
    Me debt free thanks to MSE :T

    That's the cutlery set that has shart pointed forks.

    When I called ASDA I spoke to somone from the baby section. I will call again & speak to somefrom from the homeware section Thanks.

    Wow. Just had a look at more at the Ikea web site. Not been on it for quite a long time...years. It has everything on it. Decided to buy the metal Dragon set http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?storeId=7&catalogId=10103&langId=-20&topcategoryId=15591&parentCats=15591*15811&cattype=sub&categoryId=15811 It works out to be £1.50 per set when you buy them all.

    Thanks everyone for your help.
