    is it only me who tinks that the rrp of these party bags is a bit over the top? I would have thought for what you get inside, it would be worth the £5er they are now asking for?...maybe it's because I ain't a dad yet lol

    Probably is a bit OTT but includes a full size Horrid Henry book. RRP of these is £4.99 so with other activity book and bits aswell it will be that price RRP. It seems worth more than the price it is now though, just for the books alone.

    Just ask the Book People and I am sure they will sort you out to your satisfaction.

    Cheers OP, have been debating about getting these either for my nephew or my eldest as not sure if we are having parties this year but have bit the bullet and bought them any way - and I remembered to use Quidco!!

    How anyone can think these aren't a bargain at £8 for two boxes is beyond me. That works out 40 pence per child, for party bags, that include a really decent HH book and activity book etc... the HH Book itself is RRP £4.99 - Ok some places you may be able to buy these books 3 for 2, or buy one get one half price, but common sense tells you that even those offers don't make these books so cheap.

    I personally say they were the best party bags, most economical party bags that I've ever done and I've definitely done some good ones in the past and for me I paid £14 for two boxes, which I still believe to be a mega bargain.

    i got 2 boxes with free del for my daughters party in September

    ..they are selling similar Horrid Henry paperback books in the poundland at £1 each so a bargain to start at £5 for 10 then the extras you get inside the party box

    a similar happy birthday banner is on ebay at £4-99 plus postage
