Any help would be appreciated! Many thanks!!!!!

My wife works in a store called Marshalls, and they have Xmas Puds in, do you any of these stores near you?
They also have crackers by the way.........

Would this be the department store called Marshall Fields????

we have Marshalls here in Ohio too - (next state over to that poster) so maybe they are just local. they are a home goods type of store with the name Marshalls in big capital red letters as their sign. Ive seen no mention of Fields so Im guessing your thinking of another company.

No it is a different store to Marshall Fields, it is sometimes called "Home Goods". It is a division of the TJ Maxx Stores as Ray said. Great store to browse around.
