I have just costed out our Christmas [eek]. I am thinking of cutting costs by buying what I can for next Christmas now - does anyone know of any good sales?

Thanks

I bought all mine in Wilko's last year, they were literally pennies for packs of wrapping paper (the sheets you can get), bows, tags and stringy stuff to fancy the parcels up. Have left it late though this year and not been to town to see what's left. Maybe try bhs or next?

john lewis had paper online and they deliver to local store, mu local m&s also had cheap paper a couple of days ago.

The sale in Wilkos the other day was ridiculous. Mega savings. I have purchased all cards and paper and some pressies for next year.

Asda - packs of cards for 25p and Peppa pig toys - firestation, supermarket etc for £5.

Oh and Clintons cards have 75% off paper, tags and ribbons.

Waitrose had loads yesterday. Also try WH Smiths (but cards not so nice in there).

Thanks MrsSB - I saw some nice ones in Waitrose before the sale - hopefully still there.
