Craftygranny, I love those little skulls and pumpkin pots, where do you get those from?

They have the little pots in Poundstretcher, they are £1 for 4 but on 3 for 2 at the moment

Butterscotch-

Tried to post but it won't let me put up links yet

Butterscotch-

Has anyone seen candy canes this year? I looked in loads of places last year and couldn't find! I don't have Wilkinsons or Home Bargains here.

These are Prima Say It In Studs - they come in a variety of lovely designs.

But the only ones I have found online at the moment are £3.99 a pack!! Ouch

I only paid £1.99 for mine

But I have put a question of UKScrappers forum to see if any of the shops there have them at a "good" price - which I will pass on in a link.

They have them here but at full price

I got my Candy Canes from 99p Shop in Christchurch last weekend.

They will be everywhere soon .... but I won't pay more that £1 A BOX.

Poundworld had tons of them last year,

Shops like BHS & Marks have them to but are a bit pricier - I always work out the price per each one when buying them.

The mini canny canes were in Poundshop last year.

If you have a B&M you could try there, I got a box for 69p and will be going back for more!

Butterscotch-

Thanks for all the suggestions, I'll try them although most of them are where I (and bf) tried last year. Maybe I was just unlucky. Will definitely keep my eye out as I plan to make Snowman Soup and need something for the stirrer!

I'm hoping it's 10 posts for links...
