Cling film - good brands?

Can anyone recommend a good brand of cling film? I usually use Mr T's but have learnt to buy the shorter roll as it loses it's cling quite quickly. This time OH bought the long 50m one and it's driving me crazy! There's very little cling and small bits fall off the cutter. Final straw was when some I'd had in the freezer just fell apart!
What brands do you all use?

    Lakeland do cling film and it's meant to be very good, i've not used it myself though. Only good if you have a Lakeland near you though as their P&P charges are around £4 (only free when you spend over £50).

    That's not badly priced considering it is Lakeland. I will give it a try when mine runs out.

    If you have an Aldi nearby I've found theirs to be good
  • Re Lakeland there is a thread on the grabbit forum here.

    Basically you get a pack of stayfresh bags free (worth £3.91) with any purchase plus get free postage when you use the code E18.

    So you could order the trial size roll of cling film for 97p and get the stayfresh bags and postage free!!

    If you do use this please remember to thank Claire21 who posted this!

    It's only a game

  • I got some Lakeland cling film to make up the order for free postage. It is quite good but it isn't very wide.
    If you have got a Home Bargains near you, they usually have decent stuff. (which is where I usually buy it).

    I'm quite happy with Asda SP. I bought a whoopsied pack of Asda ordinary range and it drove me mad (reaking off, losing the end, getting itself in a twist etc).

    Likewise, for 1.99, but it is from my local market & even found it in a cheap Poundland type shop near me at 1.98

    Lakeland for me too-it may be a bit more expensive but a roll lasts for ages.
