I found the Lidl chocolates vc......I bought 4 packs separately but looks like the cheese has ran out.

You will be amazed to hear that I made it home without opening a packet and scoffing the lot:rotfl:

Well done TM on your chocolate find! I have to say they' are rather nice. Wrapped up a few this morning for teachers presents, but made sure we had a couple of boxes left for us.

Now have 2 minutes to get changed & gallop down to Bingo

:o Why do I faff with cutting paper to size, just wrap the things?

Well, visited Waitys today for the Pigs in Blankets and managed to get precisely none!! So that discussion this morning was a waste of time :rotfl::rotfl:

Still did replenish my stocks of toilet rolls as Waitys own are on My Picks and I had £8 off £40 to use. We were getting quite desparate - down to the last roll and a half :eek:

For those who have space in their freezers,those caulis from T are worth blanching and freezing. Nice big white ones for 39p. I've bought one early to make a cauliflower cheese for Christmas day:)

Oh No Lizzie. I must admit mine had none left by 9.30am, but I had already stocked up yesterday, which I know doesn't help you!
I can't believe you are catering for 37 people. What size turkey do you have to buy to feed that many? At least you'll be guaranteed to have a lovely day celebrating with all your loved ones.
