B&M have changed their initial stockings to grey fur, swap/help thread

[TwinsAndTiramisu]

Thought I'd set this up just in case...

Bloody B&M, after running the same red velvet sacks and white topped velvet stockings for several years, have had the amazing idea to turn the white fur trim to grey. Super.

So any of us with new family additions will need to get the whole set new to match...or have an odd one out, which will irk me every time I see it!

Anyone who is looking to sell their last years sacks/stockings or swap this year, please comment below and hopefully between us, we can sort each other out!

Good luck OP but I don't understand why people would have things to swap? Surely you're all going to be in the same situation needing red ones? It sounds like a very annoying situation!

@Deckthewallswithpaintandplaydough they aren't the B&M ones...I don't think...

@TwitTw00 it's not just swapping, this is a thread for people who can't find this years existing range in the initial they want as well.

Hopefully there will be some people who might have bought one or two white trim ones last year, have several more to buy this year, and decide to get replacements in the new colours in order to have a matching set, hence offloading their old colour scheme ones. It might happen, you never know :)

@TwinsAndTiramisu poss not….

Probably the most unhelpful reply ever but home bargains have initial stockings in red with white trimmings - only mentioning it as it will be more similar than a grey trim one but I appreciate may be equally as annoying!

@snowmanshoes No?! Wait...that's the one everyone will be after!

They've historically done the red and white, but this year replaced it with the new grey trim. Has your store got the red and white ones in this year?

Sorry, I just saw you said "home bargains" but I think they're owned by the same people, so perhaps they are the same range, fingers crossed for everyone.

In other news, I just won the "R" for 99p! Huzzah!

Yahooo!

@TwinsAndTiramisu Excellent!!

Looking for a red/white with A if anyone has one/seen one?

Don’t ever search stockings on eBay

I had a list of the 4 closest B&M stores to my house, needing 16 stockings for Christmas Day at my house and I told my friend I'd look for the 10 she needed.

It only took 2 different shops and I got all 26, it was a close call as G was proving to be elusive l, I found one that had fallen down the back of the display!

I feel like I completed a mission this morning 🤣

Oh bravo @lunar1!!!! well done! Here, have some and with a piece of . Can you send a pic of what the new ones look like? I was under the impression they where grey with white fur or are they red with grey fur? Anyway a pic would be great, need to get dd, dp and I stockings.

I'm really struggling with adding a picture-when I click attachments it's loading up the beginning of my iPhone photos, I have over 40k. It won't let me just take a picture either. They are red with grey fur and lovely and soft.

I think the woman at the till thought I was mad!

Haha! My sil works at b&m, I will ask her wether she has seen any mad women lately.

I am also looking for an R in the old style if anyone spots one? I need both stocking and sack. If I can't get them I'll probably have a C going spare as I'll just replace the kids so both theirs match! So so annoying how they changed them this year when we had a new arrival.

Thanks for setting up threat @TwinsAndTiramisu !

I'm after an i in the old style if anyone spots one on ebay, or is looking to get rid of their old ones!

Theres an N on vinted currently too

I am looking for a red and white A if anyone has one they don't want. Gutted they've changed the colour. Thank you very much! X

I need a P or an R 🤦🏼‍♀️

There's an A stocking on Vinted right now I'll try and include the link (not sure it will work...) www.vinted.co.uk/home/textiles/blankets/2077006781-stocking 

Thank you so much you are a star! I have just purchased :-) xx

Actually just need an R red Stocking. Will happily purchase if anyone can find/ is willing to sell one

Woooooop! :)

You're welcome @Jkrgdk glad you got it!

Looks like there's a few of us searching for R's 🙈 typical!! Hope we all get one!

I am desperate for a grey and white T for my first little baby if anyone has one please, no luck with Vinted or eBay sellers.
