    No leaflets in my asda, nothing atall out yet. Just been to Sainsburys too, they have a sign up and their counters out but no leaflets sadly!

    Back onto Weco, I wonder if Aldi will still have TNT this year, imagine if they surprised us with another selection of weco fireworks, would be great lol!

    hahaha your wishing, i would thought Morrison would have learnt their lesson from last year but it seems not

    I cant believe how quiet Asda have been I usually have their leaflet about a week in advance! I know Aldi are always one of the last to put theirs on. Anyone know what date they update their deals on?Edit: Just checked my old email account and they seem to send out their deals on Friday and Mondays, so hopefully we will find out tomorrow!

    Be a big disappointment to hang on until next Thursday for Lidl (I can't wait that long as it is :D) only to find they'd been on sale for a week and half sold out :mad:

    Dan, good list, think I'd go for one of each cake if they will mix and match, can't see why not.

    So far for me then :

    1 x Fire fighter @ £9.99
    1 x 25 carat @ £6.99
    2 x Inpanema @ £12
    1 x Firepack @ £12.99
    1 x Cyberbox @£6.99

    ~ £49 Bargain!

    This is a bit excessive (well, only £36 I guess) but check out 6 x Weco 25 Carats in one go :D

    WOW that videos good! Looks like part of a proper fireworks show!

    I like your list too! (If they let you mix and match you can get cyber box and carat 25 together for £12 :) )

    And thats exactly what I mean about when they are put on sale, I have sent them an email but the last time I emailed them they took 3 weeks to reply! I would be really disappointed to find that there all sold out when I get there. Surly if that's the date advertise they should wait until that date, I mean when lidl and aldi have these laptop deals etc you never see them getting sold earlier than advertised!

    Maybe they will keep them til the advertised date but we will just have to wait and see. But if anyone from here goes into Lidl and sees them being sold can you please post so I can drive as fast as possible to the shop!
  • haha i love everyones enthusiams about fireworks, so glad its not just me!

    those lidl ones do look good, im definitely going to try and get myself some of those!

    Ah! good point on mixing the Cyber Box & 25 Carat, cheers! :beer:

    I've just called Lidl customer service.. (lol) Helpful laydee, Ashley, will call your local store for you and double check if the fireworks are out & on sale yet. Of course my branch just rung out typically.. nonetheless the principle is there if anyone else wants to check ;) 0870 444 1234. Not a premium rate number so far as I can ascertain, 10p a minute I think.

    Hmm so the way she spoke to you hints that dates will vary by store?

    I may ring up later and see what they have to say!
