Crackers
#1

Okay, bit early I know, but seen a couple threads where people asked about them.
Anyway, Papyrus had some nice English made crackers for $24 for a pack of either 6 or 8....the same crackers are in Home Goods for $9....and they had a better range of crackers.
The one's in the Christmas Tree shops were shite, half of them didn't make a bang, and the toys were utterly shite, can't see them improving much since last year.
So anywhere else?

Got ours from the Brit shop in Norfolk, was disappointed to find out it had changed ownership and the new people have pushed the prices right up, I was pissed off

I always manage to get fairly decent ones from TJ Maxx for about $9.99 a box. They usually get them in towards the middle of December.

. Actually, I always love it when people are willing to sit through dinner with their silly paper hat on, read their joke out loud and then get excited about what silly prize was inside, it's so very British! ![Stick Out Tongue](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/tongue.gif)

It's probably your hair love, not your head!
