Seasonal Traditions - UK Fireworks, Halloween and Christmas

This might be interesting for some of the readers here this season.

So, hypothetically I've got £100 to spend on fireworks. Recommend me something for the ultimate in budget displays. The constraints are I want to be able to physically get it and not travel hundreds of miles, so keeping it to big chain suppliers would be helpful.

I guess this depends entirely on where you are in the country in terms of which specialist store you can get to. I won’t travel any further than an hour and am very reluctant to pay for delivery as I could easily get an extra decent cake for the same amount.

My budget is around £300. Plan on getting a decent selection box (Jonathan’s), some candles and a few cakes. I used to get some enormous rockets previously but we’ve moved to new estate and like any new estate these days the houses are a bit closer together than I’d like so the last thing I want are spent rockets coming down and damaging something

The aim of this is to confine a budget to local availability, so, £100 and local major stores. We can do others later

I will have to tap out of this one as budgets is something I don’t do to the annoyance of my wife

If your from anywhere except the north east then surely you’ll have some decent shops which arnt a million miles, that would be your best bet to get the best for your money (a proper FWS) i live up north and we have absolutely nothing here apart from the odd sh!tshow which stock the worst of the worst i’ve always got to order online, saying that if you cba to travel you could always pay a bit extra for delivery and get them online
