B&M initials velvet sacks support group

[buckeejit]

Hi all, I'm after a D if anyone can bag one

At last call at my local B&M they had

E L K R S M I J C F A

@buckeejit - I’m not looking for any, I was just saying what was available online.

[quote dramalamma]@sephrinaX that last but about the H was meant for you... autocorrect! [/quote]
Actually, can you hold off please? My sister was just speaking about stockings and now she's going to go tomorrow instead to have a look apparently 😂

Anybody after a C or a D?

And thankyou to @buckeejit for making me feel very warm and fuzzily festive.

@IggyAce if you could pick up an I and T for me that would be amazing. My local unfortunately isn't that local (and also a pain to get to as it's the wrong side of Reading for me!) so I can't get over there often to check if they have new letters in.

@Alarae I won’t get back to a larger b&m until late next week so I will check the night before my planned trip to see if you still need them.

No worries Serifinax - I'm sending my sister on a mission too - she has no idea what the fuss is about!

Ohhh I wish there was a thread like this last year for the knitted Fair Isle ones - or was there, and I missed it?! I drove myself crazy, checking every branch of B&M within a 5 mile radius, several times per week! I ended up buying similar (but different coloured) Fair Isle stockings from Matalan, and getting Iron-on felt initials off ebay. It was definitely a compromise, as they were nowhere near as nice as the B&M ones!

I’ve just seen on eBay a seller has a few of the stockings & couple of sacks and wine bottle bags but is selling them for nearly triple the price they are in b&m!! £11.90 for the 3 quid stockings they want 🤦‍♀️😳

@FuckKnowsMate rip off merchants and I notice on most they don't specify which letters they have so buying to the eBay order?

@IggyAce many thanks!

I'll be going to my local at least once in the next week so I'll let you know if I pick them up in the meantime.

Hiya, just noticed this thread. I'm off to my local B&M this afternoon about 2pm if anyone is still looking for letters and can let me know before then.

@InsanelyTired if you see a mythical W sack can you let me know? I'm starting to think no Ws were made...

Of course - it's a fairly big store so fingers crossed

@Insanelytired I'm a bit late, however are there any I or T?

Went to my local as I was around the area. Looked like they had more in, but seemed left with the same A, C, J, M and R.

Here you go Jacksparrow . Not sure how to send a pic via pm.

No W, but there was d,a,l,t and c's
ALarae I'm happy to go back tomorrow to see if I can grab a t and look for an I. It's only round the corner and could do with getting my steps in early

Am in a shop with loads but no f or w I'm afraid. I'll be driving past here again in about an hour and a half (late night shopping!) in case anyone wants me to check specific for them. They have B C HJKLMPRST from what I can see

Oh and N I and O too...... ooh just found an F! Who was looking for an F?

And a few Es in the other bm

@dramalamma me I was after an F in a sack!

My local had a few c, e, j and A s off hand, can get back if I need to 🙂

Stockings had Ns mainly, silly pregnancy brain left phone in car so relying on terrible memory 😱

I got you an F @trytowin20! Drop me a pm and I'll get it in the post to you.

I had such a good trip out escaping the kids for a couple of hours and avoiding bedtime! .... I got one for everyone (even people I hadn't intended to!) except for DH - so I'm still looking for a G if anyone sees one (though I did buy him a D for Daddy in case I couldn't find one!)

@dramalamma ahhhhhhh! You're amazing I'll pm now.

@InsanelyTired if you do go today, if you could pick up an I and T that would be greatly appreciated. Went yesterday afternoon and typically had nothing new.

Cheeky request, but if they also do the mini velvet stocking in an I could you possibly pick that up too? They only had three in my store (all E?!) and nothing else. It's not the bottle bag, but a proper mini stocking with white fur on top. No worries on this one, just thinking ahead for stocking at the end of the bed but it's not a major issue if I never get one.

If you manage to grab them I'll PM you to arrange payment for them plus whatever postage will cost

Hiya, so I went back this morning and everything had gone. Only a handful of bottle bags left, I asked a member of staff, and they said everything is being taken off ready for our lockdown this evening (I'm in wales) and as of 6pm they're only allowed to sell essential items so Halloween and Xmas decs were all being removed
I will absolutely be going back in two weeks time when this is over here. So if you haven't managed to get any by then, I'll go back and see so sorry it's not the good news I wanted to give you!
