Made my first Pot of Gold tonight for my mum's birthday tomorrow. Will take picture and try and upload it. Pleased for my first attempt. Had got her a present but needed something else to go with it. Got some lovely little clear snack bowls in Morrisons tonight - 10 for £1. Put in a little tinsel in the bottom (just to give it a bit of bling), pound and 2 pound coins, chocolate coins, mini twix, 3 or 4 Wurthers and 3 Ferrero Rocher, and a £1 Lucky Gold scratchcard.If I had known then what I know now . . .

home bargins have a pack of mini twixs like you would get in the celebration boxes for 99p for anyone looking for gold sweets0

Finally bought my scratch cards today. Went for the Lucky Gold ones at £1 each as I didn't want to spend too much more on the pots.0

Found some star shaped, gold coloured, votive candle holders with candles marked down from £1 to 48p in Morrison's today - they are ideal for putting inside pots of gold.Smiles are as perfect a gift as hugs...

Just thought I would bump this thread up as I'm sure like me, people are starting to think of these. OH wants a different theme this year so going for silver and red. . Already have a book of 1st class red stamps from the RM surveys for mum and gran, and will aim to get 2 Johnnie Walker miniatures for dad and OH as think the label is red. Any other ideas on what we can put in for these colours will be gratefully received!0
