    Went to my local store an hour ago and couldn't find them. Looked through all of the party stuff - hats, paper plates, napkins, party poppers, streamers - everythging, but couldn't find glow sticks.
  • Wow! My most thanked post ever! Who knew you were all such a bunch of party animals :cool:
  • My kids loooove these! Was going to buy all 50 at my Mr T's, but saw someone looking for party bag fillers, so let her have half! Well, it is Christmas!:rudolf:

    Many thanks OP -DD2 is glowing as I write! (snuggled up in bed with it!)

  • scanner not working so had to test on the self scan, when it worked my daughter went back for the rest of the box :)

  • saw someone down my local tesco yest clearing out the glowsticks, the cashier wasnt happy when he paid in pennies aswell...:rolleyes:

    i bought some and ate them, im now glowing from the inside...:D
  • Many Thanks OP :beer:
    Managed to find a store with them instock - included them in a weekly shop, only to be told be the cashier that i can only buy ten of each due to the 'bulk buy policy'!
    Upon questioning the policy i was told that i can only purchase a maximum of 10 of any one item per transaction, thus i simply said put them through 10 at a time on seperate transactions - which the cashier kindly did.

    Still doesn't explain how my works can purchase 300+ bottles of wine from them for our staff christmas prezzies???

    I would have refused to serve him for taking the p. Anything above 20p in copper isn't legal tender anyway :)
    Can I help?

    Just managed to get into tesco's before it shut today and decided to get 4 glowsticks incase they weren't 1p. But sure enough they scanned through at 1p so i'll be heading there again tomorrow for some more!

    Brilliant find as i have two 21st birthdays to go to plus christmas and New Years eve parties!
