    thanks OP just been to my local Tesco (Sutton, Cheam Park) on the off chance some thing might be left, and as it turned out nothing had been marked down, i took a box of the £15 and £5 crackers and few other bits (cards and a decoration) to the till, and all were 75% off! so what with these cheap crackers and my wrapping paper reduced to £1 in M&S i'm almost ready for Christmas 2012!!!

    All the 75% wrapping paper is still 3 for 2 as well. Also a lot of the mugs with gifts and alcohol gift packs were 75% off

    Wrapping paper in Hull St Stephens not 3 for 2 or 75 % off when i bought disney one this morning :(
  • Southport Tesco had most of their Christmas stuff at 75% off yesterday when I popped in - lights, gift bags, ribbon sets, cards. Wrapping paper seemed to only be half price but didn't really look at them properly tbh as I'd got loads left from last year still!

    Got some great coloured outdoor lights reduced from £18 to £4.50 and some lovely battery operated purple star lights reduced from £4 to £1.

    The battery operated star lights are lovely aren't they! I bought the white ones for about £2.60 just before Xmas, wanted more but was gonna wait for further reductions. At £1 they're actually amazing! Unfortunaly I couldn't see anymore at my local Slough store after Xmas. :\ Which is disappointing because I really wanted some more to put on my walls, they just look lovely and convenient, especially for ceiling. Will have a look again though, thanks for the heads up. :)

  • Can anyone confirm if the gift sets have been reduced again yet? Tetley mugs, starbucks sets etc? x

    Just got back from Tesco Ashford, Kent (the J10 one). The have a whole aisle of Chrsitmas stuff at around 75% off including the luxury crackers down to £3.75 and cadburys chocolate snowballs (just love those) for 30p. I got 6 rolls of Finest giftwrap at 80p or £1 each and the 3 for 2 came off at the end of the receipt. Also loads of baubles, cards, napkins etc.

    If you have little children it's also worth looking in the art/craft section as they had packs of stickers and make-your-own cards etc. for around 38p each instead of around £1.50.

    No further reductions at Allerton Road Tescos today - everything still half price and I did try just scanning a few random items (yard of Jaffa Cakes for example, and Tetley mugs) but they were still as per SEL :(
    Tbh there was nothing much I would want to buy. Shelves and shelves of tins of biscuits; loads of boxes of those 4-packs of wrapping paper with bows etc; the Tetley mugs, Jaffa cakes, and a few Me to You things. No other wrapping paper, no crackers, no lights or decs, and only those boxes of cheapo cards.

    I've just stocked up for next Christmas......
    They were moving stock and reducing the prices to get it all gone.
    Great for kids or crafters
