I'd be suprised if Lidl were all sold out yet, bad stock management if so, this is the big week. Get down there pronto!

Id recommend getting down to Lidl too

Pic of Amethyst boom shot tubes from Sainsburys, 2 packs for £10. Dont expect them to be amazing, but they look OK for the price. There a lot bigger and heavier than I expected too!

Also, whats the weather looking like for everyone?
Liverpool says it will be light rain on the 5th! Suppose its better than heavy rain and strong wind

Thanks for everybodies help today, but i think im gonna stick with my first choice and go for the Armoury from JTF. Looks decent. I will probably change my mind when im in there, we'll see what happens. Just hope they have got plenty of stock!!!0

Honestly the Armoury Crate is a nice pack but the fireworks are low quality. Its good value for money but remember that the armoury crate is the budget range
.
You would be much better going to a all year retailer such as galactic, epic or even the firework warehouse :rotfl:

i have the armoury crate and the weight of each firework feels ok.
obviously it is never going to be as good as the big boy stuff, but for a normal garden display its great.
@bevvybear88
mak esure you have room in the car as the armoury crate really is quite a large box. i had to fold the back seats down in the car to get it in.
just make sure a) you dont go in a mini
and b) you dont have every seat taken in the car cos unless you have an estate, you will need to fold down seats lol0 -
Didn't say they where crap mate just not the best is all. Have fun with them anyway as for a normal display there k as you said
