    I'm having a Sweetie Table, I got all of my Jars from Asda at £1 (bought 9) each, they are the round ones that you get in Sweet Shops, I got my scoops from a local Garden Centre £2 for 3 so that cost me £8 in total, and now am just getting the sweets, managed to get my bags off of Ebay, got the traditional Striped Sweet Bags in my colour theme and am done, I have got all different shaped jars/bowls just to break it up a bit, but I searched high and low for cheap prices and it was Asda that was the cheapest

    Good Luck

    I had vaccum seal like jars (or cookie jars as some ppl call them) from a Pound shop (obv £1 each haha) and they also do big variety packs of sweets and loads of different kinds for £1 per bag (they are quite big bags too)

    So all in all mine is costing me a tenner, 2 jars and 8 big bags of sweets! result :beer:

    Try looking up ice scoops and ice tongs, or go to kelkoo and do a camparison through there. I think they were about 90p on kelkoo

    we've ended up paying someone else we saw at a wedding fayre to do ours due to the stress of sorting everything out last minute

    it only came in at £180 for 100 people which wasn't much different to what i'd looked at with all the vases and sweets

    www.mycandybuffet.co.uk is the address incase anyone is interested
