    I've been using the 'shining star' teddies, usually £1.99 each from B&M, but since they've changed the shop around, they don't seem to be having them in now. Had to pay £3.99 for the same teddy from 'The Range' yesterday :eek: and they only had the one left. Walked me little legs off yesterday looking, just haven't found anything else suitable.

    How I wish Asda would bring back their 'Ellies'

    My sister wants a cake for her friend who's due anytime now, so have told her, if it's a boy, she'll have to shop for her own blue teddy :rotfl:
    :rotfl:

    I haven't put my prices up as yet, but yes, I have noticed how everything seems to be increasing :mad:

    Hi all
    I am going to look at my prices, I ordered loads of stock before xmas but it has nearly gone so need to order more, so I will see how prices compare. Also, one of my retailers is selling my cakes quite successfully at more than I charge. I don't want to get greedy but it makes me think. Another one of my retailers I have been supplying sale or return has said they now want me as a proper supplier, yay! Got a gift fair and ladies night tomorrow, I just hope the halls I'm in are not too cold, I think I might wear tights under my trousers anyway!

    Hsl500, glad to hear you're doing ok, like you say it's his loss xxx

    Hi ladies,

    My local Asda last night had some cute teddies in which would look lovely on top of a cake, ok so they werent Ellies, but they looked great! I didn't have my phone so couldnt take a picture, think they were £4 each, which in the scale of everything going up isn't really a bad price!
