Has anyone tried or seen the contents of the wonderland selection or dreamland selection?

Just been into Tesco to have a look at their fireworks , not really very impressed with them. They over priced for what they are.... There is however a place in wembley selling Brightstar on a buy one get 2 free deal will be taking a trip there at the end of the week

Well yes falcon cash and carry (open to the public) in Leicester sell same as Tescos but at half the price those big £40 selection boxes in Tescos are £20 there buy one get 2 free in falcons

What is the best selection box you can buy for under £40 and the best rockets pack for under £20 im in Leicester any goos firwworks shops there

Prices this year on Standard pyro are up due to a whole shipment of their stock going down into the sea just outside of china.

If any of you are near to Northampton, or don't mind a drive I'd recommend 'Amazing Fireworks' in Daventry, they have loads of stuff there, and alot of 1.3g pyromeshed rockets. I've bought all of my fireworks from them for the past 3 years. Richard and Louise there literally live for fireworks, they hand pick everything that is in the shop so there is never any disappointment in what you buy.

JTF are doing fireworks again. Personnaly I've found their service and selection to be a bit crap -ie not everything in, random and untrained assistants etc but none the less they do have some decent fireworks and demo nights.

They have some decent looking meshed rockets I might try.

[David]

Went to the JTF demo- pretty typcial JTF stuff- although to be fair it's not bad at the price. They didn't fire any rockets, though, which is a shame - would have liked to see the meshed rockets in action.

Spent £80 for starters at JTF yesterday. Tesco obviously don't want to make much on fireworks this year.

Unfortunatly, Tesco will make a fortune. Their MO seems to be to sell avergae quality stuff on phoney "deals," and it seems to work. If they offered deep fried monkeys cocks on buy one get one free the English lower middle class would be queueing up to buy them.

They are a bit too chewy for me.
