Got 4 of them yesterday, they seem good.

Just need to check out Epic now, i found out they have a shop in cardiff.. and although i wont get some free stuff like from their main warehouse in yorkshire, it will save me from spending £250 . Just need to find out their opening times now and if they sell everything thats on their main site.

I want to spend around £20 for a OKish box or 2. Anybody got any ideas? What would you go for?

I would have sugested Aldi after looking at there box photos i wouldn't lol.

Netto seem to have a decent box for £3.99 if your interested that would leave some money left over for a pack of rockets which they sell for under £10 the cheapest being £2.50. Maybe get some cheap cakes with whats left?

Or failing that, i like the look of Morrisons Mars selection pack by Cosmic, seems to have a lot in it and is going for £20.

Thanks. I've got cheap Morrisons packs for the last few years and have been quite pleased really, considering how cheap they are.

For me, the lighting of each one is half the fun, so I don't usually do cakes, even though the results might be more impressive.

Juts been looking ay the morrsions ones. Anyone know the difference between the cosmic Mars and Saturn? I would go to £30 if it was worth it.

What about the dynasty packs? BOGOF on them, if that actually means anything these days. Are they any good, or just designed to be sold as BOGOF?

I'm tempted by either the £10 or £25 Dynasty packs. Any body had them, or knows how they compare to the cosmics?

Thanks

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet this year, but the following was in a Local Paper earlier this week:

Seems Latifs have the same BOGOF offers etc. they had last year, however as of yet they don't have the online ordering system:

Anyone had any of the those selection boxes? Particularly interested in the Baron and Prince boxes and wondered if anyone knew is they were any good?

Cheers,
Dave

A lot of people always say that the bogof ones are not worth it or are sold at double the price they should be, why would you want two of the same anyway :rotfl: .

The Mars pack, i would go with that.

Mars selection pack taken from Cosmics site:

Our most popular selection of garden fireworks providing a breath taking display of fantastic effects.

Saturn selection pack taken from Cosmics site:

Stimulate our visual sense with this sensational selection of fireworks.

Also it says there is 26 fireworks in the Mars Box and 27 in the Saturn box so i dont think it would be worth £10 for one more firework :rotfl: .

Hope that helps, cheers.
