    I checked in St Albans Smiths yesterday and they were still half price. But the guy at the checkout said he thought they were going to 99p today(Friday).

    So I rang them this morning, and sure enough they are now 99p. Quite a lot left.

    SUCCESS!!!

    Nabbed 6 packs for 99p, original prices £2.99, £3.99, £4.99 and £5.99.:D:D:D

    We scanned a few that were still just at half price, though.

    The 99p ones weren't there yesterday!

    Ah, didn't spot those lol

    The counter staff quickly started nabbing a few boxes for themselves once I did all my scanning ;-)

    That's crazy! Why would they sell full price Christmas cards in January?!
