I have just won a fab wooden play shop on ebay (am so excited been after one for ages and they normally go for £'sss and this is local so I am colelcting wednesday)

Anyway I have loads of plastic food that can go in the baskets at the front of the shop but it has a shelving area at the back and would love play tins/packets, the only place I can find them is ELC has anyone seen play tins/packets anywhere else (that isnt too expensive)

Doesn't matter where you get them, the fricking things seem to breed like rabbits once you've got them.

Lol squeaver that appears to have happened to all the indivdual plastic pieces of food (although dd2 seems to find the plastic food more appealing than real food lately )

We did have some cans/packets but they seem to have disappeared I think I may have thrown them when dd1 and dd2 ripped all the labels off, so htis time I am going to sellotape round the labels before I carefully arrange and take over let them loose with the shop!!

Argos do a big pack - not sure of the price tho.

John Lewis do them too, in store if not online, but they're rather flimsy.
