    Hi

    I only have £50 to spend and have both a Lidl, Aldi and other main dept stores nearby. I have used Lidl before with 3 for £20 offer and added Firefighter etc

    Can anyone recommend anything better?

    Thanks :)

    Hi, I would definitely recommend the lidl stuff over the aldi, far better quality. If you have a garden centre locally pop in and see what they have, keep an eye out for 'Brothers' and 'Kimbolton' both very good brands of fireworks.

    Lidl most deffo for quality Weco fireworks;I would say the new fountain, firepack selection box, voodoo star/boxxer/ipanema/firefighter cakes and cyber box. As for the the rockets, well, get them if you want but they are not fantastic. There are only two decent rockets in cocktail of rockets pack-crackles and big stormy (good report and pokey burst!), the rest are gentle low noise colour bursts. The skyline rockets pack are just gentle and pretty low noise red bursts.;););)

    As others have said spend it all in Lidl,Weco who make the fireworks are quality and far better than say TNT from Asda or Standard from Tesco in my opinion get some 3 for £20 deals,make sure you get some Ipanema's a cyber box and the fire pack selection box @ £12.99 is a good 17 piece selection box :)
