What packaging do you use and where do you get it cheapest?

I'm new and am using bubble wrap covered with brown paper, I'm interested in those really light self seal plastic bags but I don't know where to get them. Would be interested in any packaging ideas!

I buy mine on EBay and try to pay less than 15p each (inc P+P). If you need a lot I would try viking direct.

Fed Ex will give you a bunch of boxes and bubble wrap if you ask......you then post them in your local post box or give to your friendly cheapo courier.

I use plain wallpaper from poundland, it's cheaper and stronger than brown wapping paper- although I never consided how much more it weighs- not significantly more though I don't think.Works well for me anyway.
