    Went in my local £land today hoping to get the canes for the sleighs (I have everything else). They didn't have any :( but did have the christmas stock out :eek: Fingers crossed they will get some in, its early yet, trying not to panic lol
  • My £land haven't got them yet either, but went into Mr. T earlier this week and they wanted £2 for a pack exactly the same. Needless to say I didn't buy them, I expect £land will have them once Halloween has been and gone.

    Tesco have 3 for 2 down the baking aisle, which includes dried fruit (even the basics) wish I'd waited to buy my fruit now as I only started it soaking in Monday!
