When I last went to town, Woolworths had some spotty trays in their clearance section - pale blue or pale pink with white spots - various sizes but I do remember there being a small one which might be the right size you're after.

Thank you, my local Woolies is closing down but I will take a look when I venture elsewhere

I've got everything now (just waiting for cases to be delivered) to do the flannel cupcakes too, picked up packets of 12 flannels in Dunelms today for £3.49 and also some remnants of voile for 50p a piece. I'm looking out for the mini plastic trays that I could fit a coffee mug and a cupcake on and then wrap in cellophane so if anyone see's them on their travels can they let me know which shops are stocking them TIA. Also at Dunelms someone had bought a couple of things in little boxes with a window at the front but had discarded the boxes in a trolley so I whipped them quick as they could hold a cupcake too

I think I saw some of those little trays in TK Maxx, can't remember how much they were though sorry. I will have to go there sometime next week as I have some cushions to take back so will have a look then. (TK Maxx have recently introduced a 14 day returns policy)

Sorry to bang on about The Works again, but I picked up some black tissue paper for 10p yesterday. Only trouble is I don't know where I've put it now so can't say how many sheets were in the packet but it would be good as an alternative to shredding the usual brown, white, pink paper etc.

I did manage to pop into The Works today, tissue paper still £1 per pack (think there were 5 sheets in it).
They did have some centre stands with 10p & 5p clearance, guess who managed to spend £3.25 :rolleyes: luckily I was in a hurry
Thanks Passion :beer:, I think it will take me a while to sort out this lot then I will probably return to see if they have reduced the tissue paper.

I got tissue paper and crepe paper 59p in the Works at Luton, some other bits marked at 5p and 10p, got a packet of ten small xmas bags for 5p so not a bad shop today

Still £1? I'll stock up then, if it hasn't all gone I found the one I bought btw. It had 8 sheets in if that helps?
