I'm doing these for the first time this year, great idea, everyone's getting one for family and everyone at work.

I've got tumbler glasses from Wilkinsons, and the sweets (they have packs of 5 gold wrapped Lindt Santas, 2 packs for £2 at mo if anyone's still looking), will get scratchcards soon.

I'm stumped on finding cellophane though to wrap them up in. Looked in poundshops and Wilkinsons and supermarkets. Where can you find this?

thanks :T

I bought mine on ebay.

Florists also sell it, but it is pretty expensive to buy from them I have found.

If you have a Lidl near you, they were selling it leading up to christmas last year for £1 a roll. I bought about 5 rolls and still have loads left for this year. It was alot cheaper than buying from the local florist, they were charging £1 a metre.
