    That's good. I got the 15m of wrapping paper for 25p, but didn't want to pay half price for the crackers, I may just pop along for a quick look at 10p a go!
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    i nipped into our local one this morning and got wrapping paper, gift tags, chocolate coins, lindt chocolate bells, christmas crackers and some roasting tins. they had 5 foot christmas trees too but i dont need one so didn't buy one
  • Id like to say thanks for this post.
    Went to local Wilkinsons got 5 boxes crackers (Usually 4.85 each) and 5 trees (usually £ 15 each) for grand total of £1 :T
    and before anyone says what could I do with all that, the crackers 3 boxes will go into my wards xmas raffle next year and 3 trees will go onto our hospital charity stall, there was plenty of stock left for everyone else.

    If your thinking of going get a move on, the staff are not allowed to buy from my local as I asked the mangeress, but a few people looking when I left.
  • Someone apparently neglected to tell the staff at my local Wilkinsons that the xmas items were to be reduced as everything was still half price when I was in there this morning.

  • Wasn't much left in ours - got loads last year but only really wrapping paper and some cheap christmas cards left this year.

    Hi :j
    Thanks dizzybee for the heads up. Was there at 9.00 and stuff was selling fast! Got the Xmas tree. Also got some sprayed flower arrangements for 10p. Supervisor pointed out that there was decking stain in the 10p sale (??) so got some of that as well. CHECK your receipt carefully as some of the wrapping paper was going through at 25p instead of 10p - but got the difference refunded when I asked about it. Happy shopping

    Hey thanks OP. Got some plain bits for ds1 birthday party - sets of girly shower gel and bubble bath for party bags, packs of 8 paper plates, red and white stripey crackers non christmassy design , some square deep gold coloured bowls - perfect for crisps etc - cheaper than buying stuff in the party aisle.

    Also got boxes of kids christmas crackers, tablecloths, napkins, gift bags - 3 big bags full for £2.50!

    They were even selling the decorated Christmas trees ex display for 10p each!
    thanks again Sally
