    Just been to T & the chocs in bags above are £1.20 BOGOF. Qty as MLB listed.
    For those not able to get cadbury miniatures the after 8's are on offer @ £1.42 ish & I'm sure you could cover these boxes.
    ES mints BOGOF ends tomorrow.

    I am in need of value bird feed. I though T had a basic bag for about £ odd but no joy today instore or on the system I did see it & even held it, should have bought it there & then!, anyone know of very cheap feed as we are adding it to our reindeer food.
    Thanks

    I wrote a photo tutorial for the sock ones on my home page, but can't post a link to it. There is a link to the tutorial in the right sidebar on my HP though


    Do you have the poem for the cookie cutters?

    Oh ....... forgot to add ...... have you tried "What Everyone Wants" shops for Candy Cane?

    Talking of Candy Canes ..... this is my Candy Cane mouse .... you hang him from his tail on your christmas tree

    Candy%20Cane%20Mouse%201_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800

    I got the basic template from here

    http://dawnsstampingthoughts.typepad.com/dawns_stamping_thoughts/2008/11/candy-cane-mouse.html

    and then adapted it to suit me

    Back%20view%20of%20Candy%20Cane%20Mouse_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800


    This is the back view ...... but I think I should have have added a small strip of double sided tape under the cane, so much neater than the huge wad of sellotape in the pic.

    If you google candycane mouse you will get lots of variations.

    There you go! Helen's mouse post!
