    Managed to get 25 rolls. Has all been put away for the shoebox appeal later in the year. My friend is local co-ordinator and I always have the task of finding the cheapest sellotape around so I have excelled myself already! Those shoeboxes take loads of sellotape :(. :):)

    Many thanks to OP :A

    10 rolls from Tewks Rd branch, Cheltenham :j

    Many thanks to OP

    DH said I should have got more, but I didn't want to be greedy. Might have another look tomorrow ;)

    Wow that's cheap.

    I hate it when people abuse a good offer though. Why on earth would you need 20?
    Think about all the other poor sellotape-less people!

    My Tescos (Newcastle) has just completely refilled the shelf, there were about 60 rolls there. Needless to say I only took 3. As to why people may need so many. I do a lot of Ebaying and go through about a roll a week so this was a fantastic find for me.
    All the best.

    Just found 3 selotape in my local Tesco, not sure if there had been more as I looked on Saturday night but couldn't remember what packaging I was looking for.

    On Saturday I found the last of the xmas gifts and got 2 umbrella's, one girls pink one and a one in a silver tube, both 1p each. Also a 3 pack of hardbacked notebooks also 1p.

    Tonight I bought some energy, bayonet type bulbs down to 47p each. They were in a "bin" in the middle of the aisle icon7.gif

    Bulk purchase policy operates in my local store - no more than 10 identical items :(
