thanks you lot! Just spent £45 in there!

My favourites are the lock and lock, the clippits (must have over 50 in total - freezer bags, pack up, cereal bags), the silicone pastry brush, the fuzzy green mat for the bottom of your salad drawer in the fridge - not sure how but it DOES work and the lamifoil bags for freezing chilli, spag bol, curry etc.

BTW - I use an ordinary plastic knife from a pic-nic set instead of buying a specific lettuce knife

Me too. Love that shop. Local shop (Ipswich) is very odd and soread out over several floors and almost impossible to navigate with a buggy. Just as well I spose.
I got one of the cheaper roasting tins there and although it says you can;t use it on the hob to make gravy I do and it's competely fine.
Those silicone liners for baking sheets, those plasticky ones are good too and no greasing required, easy to wash and just roll into a tube for storage.
Have fun shopping.

Hi there

Scrimpingbadger... the shop in Ipswich used to drive me crazy....you took a buggy in there :eek: ..it was an assult course:rotfl: .... Now the one in Nottingham mmmmmm bliss ..
Heather..i found the best way to do lakeland is to go in have a look around, grab the leaflets - and then plonk myself in a comfy coffee shop and have a nice frothy coffee whilst pawing through the leaflets:rotfl:(you will be amazed at how much easier it makes it-and you won't miss anything;) ) ..then go in again for a proper rummage.... but im glad i have never had a CC...lakeland and a CC..ooohhh thats a dangerous mix:rotfl:

The 3 tier cooling rack is a god send, especially if you are short of space, the metal "bar of soap" is brilliant..it gets rid of -fish, garlic smells - the lot... If you do a lot of bread making..they do bigger packs of dried yeast for about £1 - they were in orange wrappers i think.. make sure you hunt out the Whoopsie corner first, if your store has one - never saw one in ipswich, but nottinghams is downstairs at the back....you can pick up some good bargains..
It is a dangerous place to start going you know... how about looking on the website first...so you can get a rough idea of what you are looking for...although once you get into the shop..i would expect the list to double:rotfl: :rotfl:

Thanks, the big packets of yeast, is that the doves yeast? if so i can buy that in tesco for 99p.
i have a breadmaker already and a sc. i really need some good cake tins, and baking sheets.
i have a set of really good knives that we were given as a wedding gift.
i could do with some new oven gloves, goodness this will be expensive. good job the cc is my husbands!!
i don't need a babana storage thingy so i've saved some money there!!!

IT would probably be easier if people said what not to buy as their stuff is just soooo good. I had a splurge in the summer ready for my new shiny kitchen to be built and everything is stil in the boxes as it STILL isn't finished. Lakeland rocks. Now the Windermere store mmmmmmmmm, only been to the old one but it was heaven. Would love to go to the new one someday. The one in Aberdeen is another buggy no no. It can be done but it is a nightmare. I just wish they would open one in Inverness as that would be jsut as easy for me to get to.
