    Both fireworks crazy and Newsbox are in essex, both all year round sellers who will provide you with fantastic value for money compared to supermarkets ;)

    ^^ Very nice! Is the Glitzy Blitz quite a weighty fountain?

    Yes it is quite heavy - not normally a fountain fan but the kids wanted it so...

    I like them, can be a good respite between the noisy stuff before armageddon part 2 begins :D

    I wanted a couple of Glitzy Blitz watching the Epic video but the specs didn't come back as claimed, the Super Conic was the full weight hard pressed but the Glitzy much lower, wondered if it was a lightweight tube up the middle window dressed thing, guess not!

    we went for the cosmic collison selection box (£49.99 + vat for 50 pieces) from makro this morning. got home and had a good look and it seems good for the money.

    Will let you know after Monday if the fireworks (night star fireworks) are any good.
  • Can anyone recommend somewhere near Leeds/Huddersfield for cheap/quality fireworks?

    Other than if I have to go to a budget supremarket should we opt for Aldi or Lidl?
  • Hi guys just had an e-mail from living social delas about some offers. £79 for teh £199 x terminator selection box. Just wondering how these are? Ta x
