In Topic: My own fireworks shop?

03 November 2008 - 03:05 PM

Considering the enormous ammount of time I have spend in front of a computer this year talking about fireworks, and the time and money spent buying them, I just had a thought that it might even be an idea to start my own shop, as a seasonal. Probably won't happen, but hey... its an idea.



Well why not!

Seasonal shops are something that seem to have been rather lacking in the Huddersfield area this year, I've only seen one so far, also noticed that many of the usual shops that normally sell fireworks don't seem to have bothered at all.

There is a B&M Homestore in wakefield whaich wasn't selling fireworks however the morley B&M did have a very limited range and by limited i'm talking about 6 different fireworks, 1 selection box and a rocket selection box. Lethat tanks were 2.99 but they'd sold out. :(

How much was Brother's stuff? I don't think Brothers have "official" RRPs.


I was given a flyer when I was in there and that has RRP's printed on it. Most of their stuff seemed quite pricey although a lot of it was BOGOF.

Jaberwocky is £45.99 BOGOFF but epic sell it for about £26.
Nightvision was £15 each compared to £8ish at epic
Starfleet rocket pack was £25.99, same thing at epic is £15... you get the idea.

Didn't stay in the shop very long due to being accosted almost as soon as I walked through the door by two chinese women saying their prices were negotiable if I was to buy something straight away, I really don't think i'll bother going there again. To be honest they seemed almost overjoyed that someone had actually come into the shop but then again that is sort of understandable seeing how the shop is at the rough end of town and about as far away from the main town centre shops as you can get without actually leaving the town centre.
