This is a shop that you leave your Credit card in the hotel safe b4 entering...
Would like to see some of your American decorations.🎅🏽🎄❤🇬🇧
Do also check out Hamleys in London. It is the largest toy shop in the world. Then the largest library the British library. Hamleys will totally amaze you!
1st of December at the earliest.
Stop creating content that doesn't represent the majority
Aww memories, as a Child my mam used to take us to Harrods and Hamleys to see the toys and decorations Hamleys is the oldest, biggest toy store on the planet it’s worth a video on its own❤❤
I used to work at Hamleys in the 1970's, most of my lunch hour was spent looking around the store. Every day I would see something new. something that really fascinated me was the 'Ant Observatory' .... yes they sold them too !!
I on visits to london to see family I used to spend hours every Christmas as a child in absolute wonder in Hamleys, was one of my favourite places
This Christmas I have discovered the other half has always thought baubles were called ball balls. He is 41. 5 years ago I found out he had always thought talcum powder was called talking powder.
😆 🤣
I took a lady Mexican visitor to Harrods. She was trying shoes on and had obviously not realised the price. I showed her the label - £600. I have never seen a pair of shoes removed and put on the shelf so quickly!
There are 12 days of Christmas, none of them are in November. 😂
When I was a child my parents would put the Christmas decorations up 12 days before Christmas and pack them away again on the twelth night afterwards. I've more or less stuck with that family tradition because I find the festive season gets a bit stale if it starts too early.
While my boys were growing I used to buy 4 of the same tree ornament, so when they leave home we have some of the same things on our trees when we're apart.
How lovely!! Such a beautiful idea 🥰
I was at a college in the neighbourhood in the 80s.
To use the squeaky clean and well appointed restrooms then cost £1.
Traditionally, that was 24,000% inflation.
A fool and their money are easily parted... welcome to Harrods!
Seems everything is 10 times the price it should be.
Facts, it’s all a bit cringe.
How can you spout something as a fact unless you have experience of it. I much prefer Fortnums food rather than Harrods. Plus I don't buy their decorations etc.
@@welshfae1249 Fortnum's huh... I refer to my original statement! :P
My mom used to say some people had more money than sense 😂
I love Hannah's videos for the way she chats away so naturally, you feel as though you're just looking around with a friend.
Hi ladies, Natasha the item you said Debbie would love but didnt know what it was, it was an advent calendar. You need to check out Liberty at Christmas, Liberty are another London store, smaller than Harrods with beautiful architecture, they always go full on for Christmas. Love your channel
Thank you!!
The patch is the regimental badge of the Grenadier Guards, the Latin is taken from the motto of the Order of the Garter and means: “Shame to him who thinks evil of it”.
Whilst most Christmas puddings have alcohol in them, supermarkets in the UK do offer alcohol free Christmas puddings.
And the alcohol is cooked off, especially if you flame it with brandy as well.
Went years ago when visiting London when my kids were Little. Well was dragged in by my Wife. We had Tea and cake whilst in side Harrods the prices were ridiculous. I eventually managed to get us out and into the Natural history museum. Me and the kids were happy again.
Hannah Ricketts does a regular vlog of the high end areas of London. A nice easy way to explore the finer parts of London. She often does more day to day things too. It’s a great escape channel. Informative and interesting- just like your channel. Keep up the great content and reaction. Russ from the UK 😊
Growing up our Christmas decorations went up around the 10th Dec & came down Jan 5th. This year my partner & I put ours up with the kids 3rd Dec
My decorations go up a week before Christmas 🎄 and down on New Year’s Day. 🎉❤❤❤❤️🇺🇸🙏🇬🇧🤷♀️
You can sell anything if you package it right! By the way it's been Black Friday here in England for the last two weeks solid! I popped into Lidl last week and there was a poster on the wll announcing "Black Friday - Starts Sunday!!!"
It gave me angst watching you pull the cracker😂 I was shouting in my head grip it harder...you have to grip and squish as you pull so you actually pull the snap and it goes bang 😂
I did have a little giggle with Natasha when the woman said speaking about her display as she opened the lapel on her coat...those are not the kind of' baubles' we want to see on display in the middle of Harrods thanks! Seriously though as much as all these decorations are beautiful I couldn't justify buying at those prices. Loved the Christmas Cracker and so glad you got to experience what we take for granted as part of our traditions over here. Loving the crown there Debbie, you wore it well!!
Merry Christmas from the UK!!
My daughter's birthday is 2nd December, so nothing Christmas related until after then. I put my tree and decorations up on 3rd this year , bit earlier than usual as we have my daughter's gf living with us and she loves Christmas as much as I do (a lot!). Usually though I put it up the 2nd weekend of December.
Harrods is very expensive, but it's a beautiful store and well worth the experience of visiting it.
Yonks ago, when I was a schoolboy in London, a visit to Harrods (in my case generally with my godfather) was a peaceful, yet wonderous experience. The pet shop, the grand staircases, the huge piano dept, and an enforced dress code for customers to enter. It simply wasn't like any other department store. Today, while still offering quality goods at extravagant prices, it's more like an overcrowded tourist trap.
Those dream days are long gone never to return.
Completely agree - no longer a luxury shopping experience
Gotta love some overpriced tat
I recall the pet shop. before pet shops with animals on display went out of favour. Puppies!
It is if you're rich. Don't kid yourself people who can afford to buy from Harrods regularly get private shopping experiences.@@rssmdb1
On holidays in the UK I just HAD to go to Harrods, as you do. This was about 10 years ago…OMG. so beautiful.. the whole place..so beautiful. The food section, no words’
In my family, half German, we used to always put up our tree & decorations on Christmas Eve, then leave the up for the 12 days of Christmas, then it all comes down on 4 or 5 January. We've had to bring it forward, so I tend to decorate now around the second week in December.
Harrods is always worth a visit, especially round Christmas. It's a bit of a joke to own a Harrods bag, as an acknowledgement of having bought something from there, since it's so expensive 😅
Hello ladies love your channel so much your the best hope you Stay together forever
Harrods tends to be expensive for the sake of it, but Fortnum & Mason is classier, and the girl who made this video made one on them at Christmas too if you wanted to watch
I was there a couple of years ago. They had a bloke singing opera while he carved the meat in the food dep. I wonder if he's still there? There's a lot of crap for sale in Harrods, but it still has quite a special atmosphere.
I was at Harrods last Saturday in the Chocolate Hall. It was heaving, shoulder to shoulder and honestly not a pleasant experience. Best to go on a wet Tuesday in February to get some space.🤣
A lot of blind food taste tests have harrods lower down. It's a status thing
I am going to get my tree today we always have a real tree.
I used to work in Harrods - it is huge! And takes ages to find your way around. I worked in the Harrods warehouse that is/was across the road that is now been turned into apartments and an expensive hotel I believe. I worked there in the early 1980s. The warehouse was linked to the main store via huge tunnels and things would be brought through the tunnels to the store. I would mostly pop up in the food hall and then make my way to the department I was delivering merchandise to. I loved working there. For the super wealthy who live in the very expensive parts of London it is their "corner shop" and they think nothing of spending money like there is no tomorrow, with no thought at all. It has changed of course since my day working there, and then ordinary Londoners would shop there. It all changed with Dodi. I wouldn't even step through the door now. If you are a tourist you should visit the place of course. Just for the experience. I prefer other shops in London.
If you love peacocks, I live in a place called rosham in england, we have resident peacocks that roam around the town and streets. Although they cause havoc and traffic by sitting in the road
Around 3000 different brands, and roughly 330 departments over 6 floors, over a million square feet of floor space, also two floors below lower ground where they prepare and cook from, and deliveries in and out, also has a carpark with valet parking and own estate agency, think they still have a bank as well
That's insane!!!
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow I've used the shop since before you were born and still not seen every department, it's changed over the years, much the same as Harry Selfridge shop on Oxford Street, although that's actually slightly smaller than Harrods, as far as Christmas puddings and mince pies, yes they have alcohol in, which is why they can keep for a few years, however they have a lot of people from the middle east visiting or living in London so have non alcoholic items along with other food and drink which suits all religions
Commercialised Christmas personified.
Iconic Harrods is spectacular - an absolute must if you visit London as is Liberty, Selfridges and Fortnum's - set aside a week just for the shops😂
MERRY CHRISTMAS HAPPY HOLIDAYS NATASHA AND DEBBIE FROM LINDA I N THE UK HAV GREAT XMAS 🎄🎄🎄🎄😆😆 YOU LADIES MISSED THE BANG FROM THE CRACKER WHEN U PULLED IT ,ITS THE LONG THIN STRIP OF THIN CARD JOINED TOGETHER IN MIDDLE IT RUNS RIGHT THREW THE WHOLE CRACKER
Hay Ladies...how about a video about Fortnum and Mason... my go-to store when I visit London. It is such a treat to enter those doors and step onto that crimson coloured carpet.
We did F&M! Back for the Coronation as we said in this video!
@TheNatashaDebbieShow oh OK... sorry, I didn't catch what you said... must have been distracted.. Merry Crimbo
I was in London last week and was in Harrods. It is beautiful, but very expensive. The best part is definitely the food hall, the types of food you can buy is amazing. The Harrods bear is cute 🥰🥰
I will whisper - "a lot of overpriced tat" But it was fun watching you pair enjoying it.
Season's Greetings!
I, who live in Sweden, set up the Christmas items that are connected to Advent before the first Advent. So the first Sunday in December. Then stars and Advent candlesticks are put up. After that, all the other Christmas decorations come up little by little. Last comes the Christmas tree and it is dressed on the 23rd. But these traditions are probably a little different depending on home in Sweden.
Take a look at carols from King's they sing beautiful Christmas carols
My parents used to decorate on Christmas Eve and take them down on January 6th.
Oh wow, that's quite a short time
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow But it did make Christmas very special.
@pabmusic1 same here although ours stayed up till the eleventh January as they came the morning after mum's birthday
Thanks for my first happy Christmas of the year 😊 ❤
Love those sweaters. Debbies is both cute and hilarious.😂,🎄,❤.
Been to London many times but never really thought about going to Harrods .lt does have some amazing things at amazing prices it also has some reasonable priced items . Looks like it would make for an interesting day browsing . Thanks for the Christmas episode it’s helping me get into the festive frame of mind. ❤Jazz❤xx
Decorations in my house always go up the first weekend of December. Hard rule.
Worked in Harrods as a room displayer, the basements are amazing and the store is spooky at night when empty….
On the xmas cracker you didnt pull the long piece that makes a bang . Merry Christmas ladies.
November is far too early for Christmas. December 10, and we haven’t even put ours up yet.
Charles Henry Harrod 1799 - 1885 . Beautiful place just to explore and admire even if you cannot afford anything . 😊❤
Love your videos and your positive energy x always a joy to watch and sometimes a good giggle too! 😄❤️x
Didn't Harrods used to be classy AND tasteful? Perhaps that's just false memory syndrome!
Food hall is absolutely amazing, make sure you check it out when you can
A few years ago I went to the Harrods Christmas shop sale, and kitted out my whole tree for a fraction of the price, and when I put my tree up even after a few years it still looks spectacular and worth every penny.
Ladies, you’ve got to watch Hannah Rickets other Christmas vlogs of Londons stores. You’ll love the Liberty store. It opened in 1875, it’s a beautiful Tudor building, all beautiful wood inside. It’s truly magical. There’s no where like it here in the UK. I’ve just found your channel & subscribed. Looking forward to watching more of your videos 👍😁
Another nice idea is to show the Christmas lights from some areas. Australia goes nuts
In 1972 my ex husband who was then my boyfriend lived in Shoreditch which then was a bit of a dive. It’s now a very trendy area to live. Anyway he took me to Harrods. I came from a small village in Surrey. However at this time I was doing my registered nurse training. So London was a shock with so much traffic and so many people. There was a dress code and was supprised that how packed it was. I was in awe at everything I saw. We saw the pet store part that sold things like lions monkeys and even a crocodile!!! Something that I am pleased has stopped but still wealthy people like to buy them. To me wild animals should be left in the wild. I know the story of Christian the lion cub that two young men bought. Anyway I am diversifying we went down to the food Hall and we saw this enormous crab for sale (I was already dead and dressed ready for eating. It cost £20 which my boyfriend paid for. I was upset he spent that much because as a trainee nurse my salary was £22 FOR THE MONTH! And my boyfriend was still at university. We took our crab back to his parents who were notified how much it was. Of course my boyfriend being an only child was used to be spoilt so his parents gave him the £20 he spent on the crab 🦀 . We all ate it for tea and it was really tasty. That was my first and last time I went to Harrods. I prefer John Lewis for everyday stuff from clothes to white goods it’s more affordable. Anyway ladies have a great day.
Thank you for reminding me of Christian the Lion. There is a documentary about him on TH-cam which I will now watch🙂. I wholeheartedly agree that I am glad this practice has long since stopped though.
Merry Christmas from Australia 🇦🇺 🎄
As a kid in Australia in the late 60’s(English Parents) my Mum would say the Christmas tree would go up 12 days before Christmas and come down down 12 days after . These days in Australia, Christmas decorations & food, especially in some stores start popping up around September/ October 😮 but I think most people put their decorations up at the beginning of December.
Love the video ❤
That was a fancy Christmas cracker! The cracker snap didn't bang though 😅 they tend to do that at times
I think you're supposed to grasp the strip inside the ends and pull, not the ends themselves to get it to "pop"?
@@JustLiesNOR you're right ! Was going to make same comment, buy you beat me to it 😁
You have to realise, it's £billionaires & Arab princesses who are buying those ridiculously priced items but I did buy a Harrods Bear every year...stopped all that when I bought my elder daughter's chosen wedding dress there in 2007 (wedding was 2008 but took several appointments for fitting, a bottle of champagne 🍾 opened for us each time 😅)
Decorate the tree? In Norway the tradition is to decorate the tree on the 23rd, “Little Christmas Eve,” but most families decorate earlier now. We have a live tree and usually set it up no earlier than the 20th, and it stays up until at least January 6th, the 13th day of Christmas. Needless to say, the tree is often needle-less by then.
I went to harrods many year’s ago and bought 2 boxes of gold glass baubles in different sizes and styles most have survived although one or two have broken 😢
A lot of over priced tat. But that's what Christmas has become.
Tis Ange
this was really sweet to see. i think id have to be very careful i didn't blow the budget way to easy to do. As for getting ready for CHRISTmas I haven't really put out many decorations. I have an illuminated nativity scene and an advent tree , to mark off the dates leading to CHRISTmas. I will be seeing siblings n the parental (( mum)) on the day itself. but it will be a short visit as I will be working Boxing day
Best thing about Harrods is to be able to walk around belly laughing at the posh insufferable tw*ts getting fleeced.
Family tradition was always. 12 days before and take them down 12 days after.
Harrods isn't what it used to be, back in my day. It's expensive tat, that is only expensive because of the name.
Just ordinary Garden Centres have better selections these days. And because you're there, to pick up a Christmas tree. It's a perfect place, to do ALL your Christmas shopping all at once.
An aside note Harrods has an ice cream bar .
Where you go and sit like in a bar stool area and enjoy whatever Ice Cream treat you heart desires .
The patch from your Christmas Cracker is from The British Army Regiment, The Grenadier Guards.
Figgy pudding us essentially Christmas There's a verse dedicated to it the carol "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" Imagine a group of 19th century Carol singers outside your door singing;
"Now bring us a figgy pudding,
Now bring us a figgy pudding,
Now bring us a figgy pudding,
AND BRING SOME OUT HERE!
And we won't go till we've had some,
And we won't go till we've had some,
And we won't go till we've had some,
SO BRING SOME OUT HERE!"
Christmas puddings can be flavoured with alcohol based drinks and 'flamed' with brandy which burns off the alcohol (children eat pudding too). We do have alcohol free puddings. I noticed you didn't pull the cracker correctly: the length of your 1st finger and your thumb should be in the join between the ends and main body. Gripping this area tightly will ensure that strip of card is pulled with the rest of the cracker to produce the 'crack' sound. Yours was still whole after you pulled it: remove it from the cracker and pull each end....
so glad you told them I was itching to
Despite John Lewis being famous for kick starting the British Christmas Ads tradition the first one I remember was the Coca Cola lorry adverts this lady mentions when she's looking at the decoration of the Coca Cola lorry which began here when my eldest daughter was small. Even now my younger sister always declares Christmas is officially on the way when that comes on! 😁
So I think it's fair to say that although we love watching our cousin's from over the pond discovering their British heritage this is one thing the great many of us Brits were very happy to inherit from the USA so much so that I've read when they dropped it one year we demanded it's return the next! 😁🇺🇲🇬🇧🎄🎅
I used to work opposite Harrods. It looked a lot different on the inside and outside then. It has always been SO expensive and was, and is, too far above my touch to actually shop there BUT on rainy days at lunchtime it was a wonderland to wander AND it was not unusual to see Hollywood Mega stars roaming the place. In truth even if I won the Lottery I don't think I could bring myself to pay these prices!
We trim up for Christmas on Christmas Eve, for the 12 days of Christmas as is traditional.
I can't afford that kind of luxury but I love looking at it.😊
It's mostly more overpriced than it should be
Shocking that people will spend this kind of money on this stuff whilst at the same time others are sleeping outside on the streets with nothing to eat.
0ver 30 years ago I used to have a customer who was about 80 and back in the 1930s she worked as a sales assistant in Harrods and she told me she used to serve Queen Elizabeth's mother and once she apologised for the behaviour or her children Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret Lol . My decorations usually go up 3 days before Christmas .
Tree and decs about 2 weeks before Xmas
That was awesome, I loved seeing all the decorations and it was fun watching you both opening the Christmas cracker! Thanks so much ! You have motivated me to go and get started decorating my Christmas tree ❤❤
Yay!! Merry Christmas 🎄
I don’t know where Harrods get there prices from. It’s crazy. You can get some the same from a garden center. They have some great things. ❤️🇺🇸🙏🇬🇧🇺🇸🎄
In the 1960s my gran who raised me used to what were called paper chains coloured crape paper made into rings and joined to make brightly coloured chains . She would put them along the top of curtain rails . or even accross the front of a shelf and put greeting cards on the paper chain fold in half over them
That,s what,s called Elite christmas but wow ❤❤
Load of old Tat for Christmas. Good luck to all the tourists who go there!
Mostly full of everything you don't need.
People only go there for the bags really.
Iceland now
Your question regarding Xmas decorations....most of the stuff is put up the first weekend of December by my family. The tree, however, is brought in and decorated on Dec 21st - generally a Noble Fir. Everything comes down on 12th Night, Epiphany. Though most of any chocolate tree decorations seem to have mysteriously vanished long before then. Oh the joy of having 15 grandsons!! 🙄
One of our xmas traditions is to watch Raymond Briggs - The Snowman, a lovely little animated movie. I also really like the Snowman Irn Bru adverts which make much more sense if you've seen the movie. It's only about half an hour long so you may even be able to react to it if you wanted. There are a couple of sequels but, whatever you do, don't watch his When The Wind Blows, that would ruin xmas...I mean it's great, but not for xmas.
I just bought half a dozen handcrafted baubles for my tree from a local small pop-up craft and home decor shop. Impulse buy, but they were so tasteful and nicely made - £6 each. And it supports the ladies who run this shop, which for me is also important in these challenging financial times esp. for small independent businesses - win-win all round 😊
Every year me and my mum buy each other one tree ornament, can be anything vintage or antique or an odd one from craft stalls, I carried it on with my children and get them one each, each year too, we've got such an amazing collection now, and eventually when they're old enough my kids will have their own ornaments to take with them to their own homes ❤
@@helensmusings Ah, that's a nice thing to do, Helen. Great to have a selection going back decades 😊
People who are spending that sort of money on Christmas decorations have got more money than sense.
Live & let live
Some, not all.
You have not realised the significance of the patch, it`s the royal cipher, the Latin words are the motto of the royal family and it is on all the Military regalia.
Years ago Harrods used to have a Pets department where you could buy anything from a puppy to an elephant! I don't think they do that now.
I believe that is where Monty Python got the famous dead parrot from.
A good thing they do not
They stopped selling Elephants years ago because they couldn't actually sell any of them, due to British customs you are not allowed to mention them while you are in the same room as them. It made selling them impossible :)
@@danielreed5199 Oh yes, I do mean years ago. Now 'exotic' pets are banned and quite right too. Selling tigers and apes was part of the 'we can get anything for you' sales pitch which rapidly went downhill when thankfully animal rights people objected enough to get the law changed.
@@margaretnicol3423 I appreciate your insight, I agree... I was though.. just making an "Elephant in the Room" joke :)
LMAO I HAVE A 7"TREE AND ALL THE DECORATIONS AND IT COST ME LESS THAN SOME OF THOSE INDIVIDUAL BAUBELS!
Hide all your credit cards before you look! 😀
Just think how irritated the extremely wealthy would be if they didn’t have ridiculously expensive Christmas baubles to spend their money on
Harrods is definitely worth looking round, but it really is just full of gaudy, overpriced tat aimed at tourists. And, more remarkably, some people do their regular weekly food shop in the food hall!
We in the North of England live in a different world. London stores are just to cater for tourists eager to lose their money. It gives a poor reputation that all of the U.K. is the same.
You took the words right out of my mouth. I would have included the word 'gullible' in front of tourists!
I'm heading there next Saturday, just got to brace myself for the Christmas crowds in Central London and try not to bankrupt myself!
I believe the Dutch don't put up their home Christmas decorations until Christmas Eve and not before which is how it should be in my opinion.
It’s a bit annoying that she keeps going on about the prices - it’s Harrods, you expect it to cost an arm and a leg. Most people just go to look and it’s beautiful, although it is good to have a bag
My mother used to take me to Harrods at Christmas she always bought a pork pie.and they always put it in a harrods bags ..then we would walk down to see the Christmas lights with my mother swinging her harrods bag good times
When I was a child a bauble was kmown as a weasle ball. At christmas I order food things on line from Harrads special things I like at christmas time.
Harrods is a place you visit for the first time with no money or credit cards, just a note pad and mobile phone. To take pictures. After your first visit, analyze what you have seen noted, then make up your shopping list. Then stick to the shopping list. And if you noted prices, and found other suppliers who can sell the same at better pricing, haggle. Otherwise be prepared to part with lots of cash.
Anybody done a christmas video of Aldi? 😅
