I need a red sack P and W. I’m hoping to go tomorrow. I came too late to it all last year and wondering if I’m too late now! 🤔😄

@MoomaidAhoy

Sorry if this has already been said, but I called B&M today and they don't make a "W" or a "Z" apparently. Not sure if there are any others, but those are the two I was checking!
That’s rubbish!

Hi I got two of these sacs today.

I had seen the sac thread but had assumed they were from Home Bargains. Not sure why as B&M is in the title. 😂

My kids initial must bit be popular as I managed to get both.

I managed to get the ones I needed. It seems that the stores are restocking better than last year.
I'm sure they had W last year so would be surprised if there weren't any this year.

I’m Hoping so! Can anyone confirm they got a W last year?

If anyone is in or near Ipswich the B&M at Warren Heath have a huge stock of stockings and sacks.

maxineputyourredshoeson · 25/09/2021 13:55

I’m still in search of L M & S stockings in grey, they haven’t even popped up on ebay yet….

1AngelicFruitCake · 25/09/2021 20:12

If anyone sees a W in the red sack please can I have it and I’ll PM you. So hopeful!

PhantomErik · 25/09/2021 22:11

Does anyone know if they do an X on a red sack? I can't bring myself to but my other DC initials if I can't get an X Sad

PhantomErik · 25/09/2021 22:11

Buy not but!

1AngelicFruitCake · 27/09/2021 21:26

For anyone wondering about W I asked at B and M today and the shop assistant said she’d seen W but not in last week 🤔 she was surprised how popular they are. I told her about the Mumsnet following so if she finds this thread then ‘hi’ from the customer obsessively looking for W!

GoldStarAngel · 28/09/2021 13:14

I needed an L and my store didn't have it today but had loads of others - I took a leap of faith and bought the initials of my other two kids in the hope I pick up an L in a different B&M in due course. So if anyone has seen an L in a London or the London bit of Essex please tell me.

GoldStarAngel · 29/09/2021 08:43

L anyone?

Starburst8 · 29/09/2021 09:28

@GoldStarAngel

L anyone?
Is it the sacks or stockings you want in an L? There was a stocking L in my local but I'm in Yorkshire
GoldStarAngel · 29/09/2021 11:17

Sack. We have M&S stockings from a couple of years ago

Starburst8 · 29/09/2021 18:58

Not looked in the sacks but can do when I next pass? Smile

GoldStarAngel · 29/09/2021 20:21

Thank you. My next day off is Tuesday so I might do an Ilford and Beckton hunt for sacks. Message me if you need me to look for any specific ones.

Starburst8 · 29/09/2021 21:08

Thanks, I managed to get all mine the other week. So I'm happy to just keep an eye out for everyone else Smile

RevolvingPivot · 29/09/2021 22:30

Do people get all the family or just the children? I don't get many presents so didn't see the point.

RevolvingPivot · 29/09/2021 22:31

Also do you get an "M"um or "D"ad or the initial of your name?

Starburst8 · 30/09/2021 09:12

There's only me and my little one so we have one each. I don't get presents myself so I put the stockings on the fireplace for decoration.
If my initial wasn't already M (handy, I suppose ha!) I would get my own initial and not M(mum) or D(dad).

Slayduggee · 02/10/2021 13:17

Very pleased as just managed to get a full set of stockings from B&M (M, D, H and F). Managed to get three red sacks (M, D and H) so I’m just on the lookout for a red F sack now. According to the lady on the checkout they don’t make many F’s

1AngelicFruitCake · 02/10/2021 15:17

I’ve been to three B & M’s and seen no sign of the red W sack ☹️ Really hoping they make one!

GoldStarAngel · 02/10/2021 21:24

I am going to try a different one on Monday so will look out for them.

1AngelicFruitCake · 02/10/2021 21:39

Thank you, do you still need an L in a red sack?
