The Great Cheap, Safe Fireworks Hunt

tiggrnads

Don't know if Lidl has been talked about much on here and the fireworks might be rubbish (we'll see tomorrow night) but they do seem to be the cheapest I've seen. If they are any good then I'll go straight there next year.

sales-wise, its been a disatser so far for fireworks shops. no one is buying much. so, there might well be some good bargins in the next week. please say if you spot any.

JTK has already reduced some of their selection boxes.

We set ours off...they weren't very good. Especially the large rockets. Don't get your hopes up.

cheap does not mean good. simple.

anyone buying cheap supermarket stuff is wasting money and getting let down.

I'm sure I said several times this wasn't a good box....definitely one of Latifs worst...but then as we said before it's only £40 - I agree with the above poster, at the end of the day you get what you pay for....

Set mine off last night. All of it was from epic but a family member brought along some rockets and a cake from Lidl.

All the epic stuff was quality, really good. All the neighbours were out in the street watching them! They were as good as you'd expect to find at a local display. Very impressed.

The cake from Lidl (purple people eater?) was pretty good as well to be fair. The Lidl rockets were ridiculous. I've heard louder farts. Hardly anything came out when they exploded. They were just rubbish.
