The Great Cheap, Safe Fireworks Hunt

Firework Crazy do them for £39.99 for the pair. They're good for the money. You need to go on youtube and try and find videos people have made themselves as I think Absolute beef up the sound on their own videos.

Do like the look of the RP70 shots from galactic

Does anyone know of any firework shops who can assure delivery on a specific day for a reasonable price? I work M-F so I can't be around to accept delivery, so I'd have to send it to my parents who don't want to wait in all day every day for a week!

I'm looking to spend around £100-150, would I be better off just trying to get lots of Weco stuff? I also have a kerrison toys store nearby who stocks fireworks international, brightstar, brothers, red devil etc all at fairly reasonable prices (eg £10 for a cheeky cherry, can't go wrong there).

IVe had stuff delivered to my work place twice with no probs ,,is that a possibilty for you.
If you spend about that much ,it may not be worth the extra for a delivery charge.

Just looked at that Kerrison website and if I was you I would just go there and get as much Brothers stuff as you can for your money, the majority of the range is brilliant! Some of the fireworks international stuff is really good too. Plus you will save £15-£25 on delivery so could spend that in Lidl on some Weco bits,
I would get:
Firefighter cake £9.99
Aquilla £4.99 (maybe 2?)
Ipanema £7.99 (or you could get the 3 for £20 deal with a cyber box too!!)
and the rest on Brothers stuff, Fireworks int. and you should have a great stash


Also,
passed Lidl earlier so had a quick look in to see the fireworks, Aquila looks like a decent sized cake for the price, Id say around the same size as Ipanema maybe? Totally forgot to look at Voodoo star though.
Will be going back in the week to pick a few bits up

Unfortunately delivery to my workplace isn't going to happen. Any specific brothers items or are they a generally good brand?

I also have a Makro card if that's any use.

Are you after Cat 2 or 3? Most of the Brothers stuff is good,

I would say the majority on there are good pieces, just depends how much you really want to spend per firework. I would avoid Red Devil though!

Also depends on the prices of the brothers stuff as theres no prices online unfortunatly, what you could do is go through a couple of those brothers pieces and google their names to watch a video of them/ get an idea of price then note down the ones you like

-Oh and Makro are stocking Night Star this year, more or less the same as what Morrisons are stocking so I would probably give them a miss
