Facebook - Christmas and Halloween shite

[shitinmyhandsandclap]

and so it begins, get this lovely chocolate sleigh for the bargain price of £6

It's all about the fecking hampers round here.

And Christmas Eve boxes, three quids worth of tat for a tenner.

The shopping baskets he’s clearly just nicked from Sainsbury’s and wants £25 for

I hate the hampers filled with stuff from poundland.

Place marking, I bloody love this thread

I found a herd of them...I may surprise my friend...

😂😂😂😂

I'm confused by Gromit...

A selection of painted pebbles! Again, something you do with your children.
There seems to be someone locally making some rather lovely, tasteful quality decorations for a reasonable price! I was quite shocked!

The nice stuff!

I made those chocolate sleighs myself... kinda cute.

No proper tat but got unreasonable rage a tithe Cadbury boxes for £15 with only £6 worth of chocolate.... £9 for the cardboard box

Omg! Turnedouttoes, retro shopping baskets! That person is a marketing genius. I don't think the receiver of those wonderful baskets would be too pleased with being informed of their Retro pedigree though 😂.

I'm confused by Gromit...
By the look of it Gromit is also wondering why he's there too!

Do you get the basket of washing on the background too?

There must be something wrong with me .. because most of the things that have been posted on here, I think 'that's nice' :').

I don't know - to be fair, those sleighs looks like they would cost you £6 to buy the components anyway?
2 large chocolate bars on the bottom - £3?
2 candy cane runners - £1?
2 curlywurlys - 50p?
Poppets - 50p?
Something small - Freddo maybe? - 20p?
Chocolate Santa - 50p?
Ribbon - 10p?

That's £5.80. So not much profit being made. The seller could be saving some money by buying in bulk I suppose. But if you wanted to make just a couple with your children, I don't think you'd get much change from £6. And if you wanted to buy a Christmas themed selection of sweets for a stocking etc and couldn't be bothered to compile it yourself, I don't really think this is a rip off.

@notso

We made the sleigh things for a PTA fundraiser last year

I've only seen this so far £4

@LMW1990

Reminds of the 12 days of Christmas handmade thing that was being sold on eBay! Anyone else remember that one?

The centre piece that was a pile of caulk with plastic figures on and cost £1,000? I just had a look for it but can't find it.

I actually like the cork naivety :)

My friend would definitely buy these!

My cousin started "upcycling"in lockdown.

I'm only still friends with her on FB so I can judge. She's bound to do this sort of nonsense.

I like the reindeers too:)

Do i suppose to find these things bad 😂

@Iola4

I'm confused by Gromit...

I think it looks great. I'd definitely buy that.

Yummy

Saw this the other day, find it quite creepy, but can be yours for £5

@manicinsomniac
Large bar of choc 79p x 2 =1.58
10 candy canes 59p = 11p
Crispy rolls 1.00 for 5 = 40p
Poppets 30p
Freddy 1.00 for 5 = 20p
Father Xmas choc 10 for 1.00= 10p
Based on Home bargains prices.
So less than £3
