Christmas prezzie PSA: Cremation Urn, £33.99 from Sports Direct

https://www.sportsdirect.com/studio-cremation-urn-720747?clickref=1100lzIFgNIp&utm_source=partnerize&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=drytinder#colcode=72074711

Can also be personalised with loving words of your choosing. Or your last words. Your choice really.

(£4.99 postage.)

You are pretty much guaranteed a warm and loving Christmas day if you buy this for your beloved OH.

Nothing says I love you more than buying an urn from Sports Direct (upto 70% off) so your loved one has one less worry over the years ahead.

As an aside, buying two might be a prudent idea because, well…

On a completely unrelated subject does anyone know if sportsdirect gives an option for anonymous gifts?

What!

No massive Sports Direct logo like the giant coffee mug?

I’m out……..

You should probably order two, just incase.

Buying someone an urn for christmas will certainly make a ‘statement’ though!!!!

Proper loled at that!! 😀

This would be heroic for Secret Santa.

Career ending but heroic.

Was hoping for massive branding although having swerved through the temple to nylon at the weekend it’s all about the Frasers membership thingy now. Regardless, branding.

Would make for a pretty good coffee bean storage container

Not going to lie, if you buy it and manage to sell it as such to whomever the “lucky” person is you are erm, treating, to this lovely… bean storage container… I think you deserve some sort of medal for gallantry.

More likely there will be a patio laid in your honour but you’ll have tried, none the less.

Yes, but spare a thought to the poor person in HR who opens the email complaint at 8am on Monday morning… PMSL!!

Ah! But the gifter can simply have “Beans” engraved on the urn as per dyna-ti’s suggestion.

“Plausible deniability.” 🙂

Looks like a cookie jar

Yep, again, we cant be held responsible for the macabre thought processes of the lucky people we buy this for, particularly as it can be engraved with “Cookies.”

Its a perfectly good cookie jar m’lud.

My dad is still in the large dark green plastic container that we collected from the crematorium 6 years ago (19th October 2018), it’s exactly the same style of container that shops had boiled sweets in.

He’s sitting on a shelf in mum’s kitchen,

Novelty cocktail shaker?

Anyone else ptsl at Lee Mac with his Nan in an Urn on 8 Out Of Ten Cats……

Or your last words.

That must be a painful date to remember my friend. I hope my tongue in cheek post hasn’t made things worse for you. It would never have been my intention with this post, even unwittingly.

Huh, all my dad got was a brown paper bag in a fancy box. He’s residing on the top shelf above my desk, hasn’t complained mind.

I’ve told my lad to use a cardboard box and scatter me by “dads tree”.

I’ve asked him to watch The Big Lebowski before he does so mind you…

(When we turned up to scatter my grandparents ashes – my mum (their daughter) had decanted them both into a massive Bassets Jellybaby container – one of the ones shaped like a jellybaby. Funny/weird in about equal proportions)

Nah not at all, we’re heading out for our yearly pilgrimage tmorn with him in his plastic sweetie jar to the local beach/shore as it was the last place we managed to take him for a seat before a mix-up with his meds killed him. Then we’ll take him home and put him back on the shelf.

34 quid? What’s wrong with one of those big Sports Direct mugs with a tinfoil lid?

Thanks for replying mate. Glad I didn’t cause any upset. I hope the weather is fair for you all tomorrow.

Surely there are 100s of urns available 2nd hand once the contents have been spread.

Seems a waste of resources to buy new
