    ive already spent £500 odd quid this year.i really wanted to try out some brothers stuff because i heard how fantastic they were supposed to be.no one sells brothers down here so i ordered some online from a place in essex.ive still got half of that stuff left to light. apart from that ther was a local party shop who sold me some stuff at a good price ,golden lion ,kimbolton and some flash brands. then i had a load of cosmic astra fireworks from a discount store,buyology,that is where i got t rex which is so far anyway the best firework ive lit,considering the price,£12. all the brothers stuff is good and to answer your question ,i dont know!

    ur lucky ive only spend 100 max before but there are odd stores that show up near me with up to 90% off! have u ever tried thunderbats by golden lion

    Just to tell you, if you look at the firework leaflets for aldi, lidl etc theres no garuntee that they will all be on offer for New Year in fact Aldi dont usually stock them for new year at all. From what I know Asda and Lidl is alls that sell them for New Year. Also the range will probably be cut down eg Lidl offering maybe 2 cakes a rocket pack and one selection pack.

    Not sure about tesco but I dont seem to remember them selling fireworks in the past. I would definitely recommend Lidl though they have used a different brand (Weco) this year who make excellent fireworks.

    Only all round retailers and those who have tempory leases (like at bonfire night) will be open for new year but not all of the shops that sold fireworks for bonfire night will, you usually dont even get about what around a 10th of the shops that sold on Bonfire night I would say ( taking out the majority of the small corner shops, supermarkets, seasonal shops etc).

    All round retailers will be open though (will also be open before the 27th.) offering the same range as they had for bonfire night.

    i agree weco fireworks are very good quality where abouts are you from because if you where within 50 miles of portsmouth and you had any all round sellers near you then my dad would probably take me there :L

    damn lol @:) i was thinking of jtf but that is ages away from me then i thought epic, i would happly spend 250 next year but it depends how much i save because delivery is 50 pound is quite abit of money for delivery, erlier i said about bulldog because next year my waitrose will sell them again and for 40pound i can get some astro flyer rockets which are quite big and earthquake rockets. i cant post links but go on nightstar fireworks and go to the 2 page of rockets and look for sky storm if you ever see them i would advisyou to buy them because i have picked up 5 packs of them for £50 at a wholesalers and the bursts are massive the bursts where bigger then a 4 inch shell rocket i bought 1 year ago and that was 20 pound a rocket !!!!!!!!!
  • in asda do you know what the soaring eagle rockets are like
