    I buy the best crackers I can find cheap in jan then I open one end and slip in something like a treat sized chocy bar to top them up a bit as the presents they have in them are never suitable for toddlers and they are normally only interested in the hats anyway :D

    Hi, I have decided to buy one of those HUGE crackers ( I have seen them for £9.99) which has everything in for about 10 people. We can all pull it together and it's a bit different!

    Guess who will be shopping for lil things to fill them! :o

    Hi
    I am sure these are the same as those I bought in Home Bargains. I recognise the decorations. They are only £1.49 there, if you live near one.
