    I bought lights in home store and more last year for the tree I think it was the 2000 I got, a couple were flicking oddly before the end of the Christmas last year I’m wondering will I get this year out of them
    Or should I buy a spare set now just in case

    I don’t want to be dashing out next week in a hurry ....with trying to get the tree up

    I priced around and they are the best value. Like you I had an expensive set with a bunch of lights flickering( bought from a local store 8 years ago) so I decided to get rid of them and start again. Would you like to get another year out of them? Are they very noticeable?

    Just saw you got them last year. Could be still in warranty ?

    Thanks yes I only got them last year in November I was disappointed to be honest when I seen them flickering

    Anyone that bought lights this year for Christmas did you notice on your receipt that homestore and more give warranty on Christmas lights ?

    I know somebody who bought lights at Homestore and More and they had issues with them. They weren't much help with returns either.

    Nothing specific to lights. Just refund and exchange policy can be found at homestoreandmore.ie

    If you have the receipt or proof of purchase on your credit card, try getting an exchange first.

    Ah LIDL where you really do have to fight for every decent bargain out there.

    Yeah, I'd rather spend the tenner. :p

    It's great fun tough. Mothers getting there three year olds to push to the top of the queue. Pensioners with trolleys and the generally look of determination in people face on a cold bleek morning.

    Lidl & Aldi are great if you dont have a 9-5 job or suchlike. All the 'bargains' are well gone by the time we ever get down there in an evening or at weekends.

    Still always manage to pick up a few other bits though.
