Christmas Crackers - Oh the anguish over choosing them! Anyone else?

[Driftwood999]

The title says it all really. Other years I have breezed in a shop and bought some expensive oh la la crackers. This year, we were held up a bit due to health problems etc. Bought Coop - 12 family crackers, and how did we larf We only used 7 out of the 12, not bad value for £5! But no fortune fish Such good value for money, and I was a bit at buying them. Silly me.

racing reindeer ones were fab.
I'm on the lookout for reduced racing sprout ones to put away for next xmas.

Paid £2.49 for mine in The Works and we had a fortune fish!

Hope the health issues are resolved.

Aldi- because I was doing a green and gold table setting, and these were green+red and green+gold holly pattern.

I did consider splashing out on luxery crackers but the DC wouldn't appreciate them.

DS showed off his Brainiac-make-sure-you-get-all-the-contents-of-the-cracker technique. And yes, the little blighter got more than his share
