    Default does anyone know where i can get..

    ... chunky chalk for writing on the patio?? i've seen tubs of them somewhere but have tried toys r us and tesco extra today and i'm at a loss - apart from those shops and woolies i can't think of anywhere that does miscellanious childrens bits and bobs.
    HELP!!! (also don't want to spend a fortune so P&P isn't an option for online places, i'm expecting to spend a couple of pounds on this!!
    Blessed Be!

    Do you have a 'home bargains' shop near you? I think I have seen them in there before.

    I have tried the cheaper ones from poundland and to be honest they were not that great and kept crumbling if you know what I mean

    They are great from Early Learning though

    A friend also told me they do great things here with regards to chalk and blackboards but I have never used the site myself
