    Bought one of the musical tins today! OP beat me to it! :D

    The music is Winter Wonderland, Jellyhead you're right the key is underneath. The inner sleeve of the tin revolves around to show the winter wood scene in-between the trees, its really quite cute.
    However I don't know if its just me, but the music box seems a little off key in some places!
    Adds to the Christmas novelty I guess!!

    Haven't opened the white bags inside but appears to have two quite generous bags of cookies (did the whole bag squeeze while trying to control self instead of ripping open the bags and scoffing away!).

    thanjks for answering the questions - you beat me to it ;)

    I got one today, but I tried them in the shop and 2 of them didn't seem to be working properly. I'm glad I checked first, because the little girl I'm giving it to would be disappointed if it didn't work. It plays the 'walking in a winter wonderland' music and the pictures are really sweet (foxes, bears, owls etc.)

    I looked at this sort of thing in TKMaxx last year. They had a large selection, at around £7.99 I think. I'd already bought presents by then though, and couldn't justify the extra expense. This is so cute!!

    Employees were winding up several of these, all stopping and starting at different points in the tune, I guess so that shoppers would realize they played music. All it did was annoy me while I was trying to look at them, which in turn put me off the item, so I left it. Wish stores wouldn't do things like that -- noisey is not a selling point. I'll wait to see what else comes along on their daily deals for the gift I have in mind.
