Hi Rusty that looks great hunny well done. When I tried to wrap mine I put my blooming fingers through the wrap lol.

rusty that looks fab! I am putting off wrapping mine cos they never look as good as the ones on here!

Morning ladies, had some great bargains in Asda this morning. If you get chance Claire has put a post on the grabbit board and Igda has started a thread here too. Definately worth a look.

Just to add, Rusty hamper looks fab, you've wrapped it perfect.

Thanks guys ... I normally put my finger through the wrap or end up wrapping to tight so they all push through :rotfl:

Soblivion I might have to have a wander down there, will ring OH see what he says although could also be good for me cause his birthday is end of Jan so I could possibly find something for him there

As is stated rusty no alchol or beauty gift sets reduced but I got some lovely bits for a £1, a mug in a tin with a key ring and fridge magnet, a mug with cholate and marshemllows with little whisk and grater for £1, a photo album and frame for £2, there was stocking filler bits for children but I don't have young ones.
There is talk of the beauty and alcohol sets being reduced at a later date but I don't know.
I guess it's what you make it, if you go expecting a 50 inch LCD TV for £1(which I know you don't) then you'll be dissappointed IFYSWIM, I just went with an open mind. Somebody said some of the things are only £1 in the pound shop which I don't know if they are but we don't have any of those, so I was more than happy.

I have done a movie night in hamper for my daughter. It was meant to be just a few Christmas DVDs as she absolutely loves watching Christmas films (She is 16) However whilst shopping on ebay for various Christmas DVDs I managed to win a bundle of RomCom DVDs for just £1.75. Irony is that I never got round to getting the Sanya Claus boxset which is what gave me the idea in the first place...

The Hamper also includes 2 bottles of J2O, 3 packs of Microwave popcorn and the clapperboard which is quite fitting as she is studying Film and Media at college.
I have yet to add a pack of sweets as I am scouring Derby for a packet of White Maltesers so if anyone sees any let me know

Jembie not sure if you have a morrisons in Derby? I don't think Ashby tescos is too far if I remember rightly but tescos and morrisons have had them this week.
