Mr Bloom   10 #2 Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) I have not seen any fresh holly wreaths for sale this year in the shops. I have seen fresh pine/fir ones in Lidl, Aldi, and Tesco Express, decorated with various things - all priced around £4-£6. Aldi also had the little Christmas trees - my relatives have put these on family graves before and they have lasted a long time, especially if you can actually plant them in soil at the grave. I did think these were a little overpriced though at the £7 mark, because they were only very small. I'm sure you'd get them more competitively priced elsewhere.

bottletree   10 #9 Posted December 18, 2014 I had my wreath stolen Tuesday night. I live at Sheffield Lane Top. Quite disgusted to be honest. When I announced it at work all I got was a round of laughter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
