:rotfl: I couldn't believe I'd let myself eat 2 of the nets - was trying so hard to be good as bought the cauldrons from Asda and realised just how many I'd need to pad it out :rotfl: luckily Wilkos are BOGOF at a pound (and bloody yummy tasting ) and poundworld has 6 fererro roche for a pound so hoping it won't be too bad (especially if santa is watching and I have to be good .

.... Actually, I think what will be harder is not nicking a couple of the loose £4's worth of gold covered sweets I bought yesterday from the Market. There are downsides to being organised :rotfl:

I once ate everyones christmas presents 3 times..wasn't great! It's my first year living with the OH and even with him keeping an eye on me I've eaten a box of Terrys all gold (oh the shamme!)



I'm thinking of trying this.. the couldrons seem like a good idea, might pop into wilkinson today and see if I can get any, I don't have much money this year, and don't want to just give people little gifts, but I think this'd pad out their presents nicely..


Edit : Humph, saw ferrero rocher 2 boxes for £6 in mr T's and the OH didn't trust me to buy them this early..

Managed to pick up a box of 2 little gold pots... absolutely perfect for pots of gold in Poun*land. They were with the candles but a re perfect size. HTH

The Co-Op now has the £1 Christmas scratch cards in - I bought 10 on Sunday.

They also have the bags of mini crunchies - 2 for £2.50.

I also bought 2 bags of their own brand gold wrapper eclairs.

Any one wanting the small Cadburys Wishes, I saw these in B & M at the weekend for £2.99.

I was just about to post and ask you how much they were then! Doh!

Anyone not doing their pots in gold?!

I've never done pots before but planning on doing about 10/12 this year and picked up some festive plastic tumblers out of poundland at the weekend.

Packs of 4 with Santa/Penguins/Reindeer on them, white tumblers with blue/red pictures. Then picked up a pack of 12 candy canes in Home Bargains for 89p

Have decided I'm now doing christmas pots rather than gold as I thought you get the scratchcards in christmas design.

Anyone got any ideas on what other sweets I can put in them?

Wilkinsons do nets of Santa / Snowman chocolates for £1.00 & are BOGOf. I get these every year for advent calenders. HTH

Crowdpleaser

First year doing these but mega excited about it! Am doing 5 for pre school teacher and childminder and assistants and 5 adults and 2 littles for xmas table.

Been in Sainsburys today and they have the multipacks of fun size crucnhies for £1 guess maybe for Halloween. Little Lindt teddie chocs are 3 for £1.Box of 15 Ferrero £3. Also found some fab little crackers with sweets in, all colours but i dug through for the gold ones!!! LOL! Picked up packs of 2x gold pens from poundland too.

Anyone know where I could get little pot of lipbalm in a gold tin? Or gold soap or gold tealight? xxx
