Silver strands of tinsel-like Christmas deco

To make my Mum's Christmas (well, perhaps I'm over egging the importance slightly, but) I need to get hold of that stuff that comes in long thin strands that you hang from Christmas trees and can use to hang other stuff from.

No bargain prices necessary on this one, just location of the stuff within the vicinity of Colchester or Chelmsford please.

Thanks.
I am a cider drinker - like my father before me.
