Pots of Gold

Is there a thread already running with current ideas for pots/bowls for the Pots of Gold? I have 16 to make this year and have just realised I ought to start looking for something to put it all in.
I'm going to check out Poundland tomorrow but if anyone has seen any good buys recently I'd be very grateful to know.

    Asda smartprice eclairs are a cheap way of padding things out as they're like 30p a bag and in gold wrappers :)

    Thankyou, I'll revive that thread and post my finds presuming I make any! Certainly looking for padding out ideas when I have so many to make so I'll have to pay Asda a visit.

    I've got 16 to make this year as well .......did not know whether for a change to try pots of silver, but probably would find more sweets etc. with gold wrappers. So disapointed last year that none of my lottery tickets I put in were winners ....even a fiver would of done !!

    Oh that is a shame. Better luck this year.
    My DH's side of the family won't have seen them before I don't think, so gold will be fine. I need to start collecting stuff for them though, only 80-odd days until Xmas!
