Smile Fireworks

Can anyone recommend any decent Fireworks for about £60.
Was looking at the deals in the usual supermarkets but I haven't bought these for years and haven't a clue.
Are there any makes to avoid?
Are the places that pop up around this time selling Discount Fireworks any good?
Just want to get some for my little un as she is getting Firework mad
Would we be better going to a display?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

If you've got a makro card, or know someone that has, they're doing 150quids worth of fireworks for 60 or 70quid, dont know if they're any good, I'll find out next week when we let them off
We went to a proper organised display last year, and tbh, we wished we'd saved the cash and done what we usually do, watched them from outside the venue.

Hi Mate

Got a Costco card but no Makro card
I do know someone with a Makro card though so will take a look.
Thanks for your help mate.

Where do you live mate? If anywhere near the Midlands go to Jordan's in Leamington. They sell pro fireworks all year round and even have dvd's showing what they do, so you can "try before you buy"

I'm guessing from all the £'s and the lack of $'s that there's a lot of British people here.

It was/is a British site but it has been bought by an American company.

On a different note my Brother-in-law lives in Maryland.

If you are in West Yorklshire then goto the factory shop in Huddersfield - I did and bust £100 on about £500 worth of fireworks

Waste of time and far to expensive I rather go to a organised display.
