Spotted today in my local Tescos. Pink balloons with LED inside like this for only £3 for 5!! Perfect evening decoration! :money:

    I put these in my favour bags for the kids...they loved them! They lasted really well and even after the balloon popped the kids (&some grown ups!) liked playing with the little LED...

    I bought these for a party and they were quite poor. Certainly not as bright as i imagined they would be. They were from Tescos too.

    I would suggest getting a pack and trying them out at night, they may have improved by now, but i was very disappointed by them.

    Are they for helium or just air? I may be being dumb but I can't see that it says on the website?

    I couldn't find them for ages, but if you go in the groceries bit and then search balloons they're there!
