You didn't include the link but I looked anyway - shocking! By the way at Dunelm you can get some nice stockings which I think were £1.79 but in any event were definitely less than £3

Hi Maria, the one above was £22 plus £8 postage as it has a few hidden extras. I normally sell the ones above (without the extras inside for £20 + £8 postage or free delivery if local or even collection if local) I really recommend trying to make one as they are really easy and fun to make the normal contents of the one above is socks, sleepsuit, vest, 34 nappies, blanket, muslin square, and teddy. actual cost of the above does vary however it is approx £18 so I only charge the extra couple of quid as profit and also it is there incase I can't source nappies cheap enough etc.

Anyone doing a baking hamper for children, i used one of the M&S packet mix fairy cakes today (found it in the back of teh cupboard!) with my 3 yr old and amazingly the cakes were lovely! Much nicer than the usual packet mix sort.

Thank you, I will look out for that

I did go into a new store thats opened up in Halifax called Range. I think it's similar to B&M/Home Bargains, they had quite a few bargains - the had a pink polka dotted shoppers bag for 99p that I thought I could use at the beach bag, they also had it black.

Their wicker baskets started from £1.99, I think.

to anyone looking for a beach bag to do a holiday hamper the peterborough matalan had a quite big straw type pink one reduced to £3

tesco also has cheap bits for baking hampers - silver balls are 9p (which are apparently better for the environment/wildlife than glitter in reindeer food too) also have hundreds and thousands for 13p and sugar strands for 12p, they didn't say reduced but i'm sure they didn't use to be that cheap! in the packet cake mixes they also have some in the night garden biscuit mixes which i hadn't seen before, think they were £1.79
