Ah, that's what the other shapes are - saw these on the Lidl app but could only identify the Christmas trees in the photo. Have added them to my shopping list for the weekend - think they are 99p a bag?

.

Yes, 99p. They weren't with the Chritmas bits or with the Manager Specials in my local, but on the end of an aisle opposite the fruit & veg - thought they had sold out!
Anyway, just in case you can't find them to start off

Argh...was in Tesco this morning and my brain must have been switched off cos I never even noticed the selection boxes-doh! Will have to send hubby out and hope there are some left.

Poundland have those Xmas pudding bin bags. I got them as a daft stocking filler for my hubby. I don't normally do a Xmas stocking for him but I think most of the fun on Xmas day is the contents of the Xmas stocking! (Must drop a hint for me to get one.)

Hello my fellow mince pies :j

Has anyone else in the North East managed to get the luggage tag type labels that were pictured on here a while ago, from Poundland? Just been on the website and can't find them, the cardboard ones...similar to the ones posted a couple of pages back from The Range. I've been in four Poundlands in the area and there are none! And the nearest Range is about 50 miles away :eek:

They've become an obsession because I can't seem to find any!

Wow, Tesco is complicated.
We wanted to double up vouchers and buy a tree online. But it seems like to double up online you then have to wait for them to send you a paper ecoupon before you can order?
So weird when you can do it all immediately instore.
Bleh.

AND.....does anyone know of a reasonably priced site to buy a real tree? I could Google it but I know all you Christmas lovelies know the score when it comes to the best deals

If you go to your clubcard account online and go to the bit where it says my clubcard exchanges the voucher should be there. It might take 24 hours to appear though. Done this for toys. x

Aaaah. Thank you, that would make more sense!
I shall sit and wait, patiently-ish. *twiddles thumbs*
