  • Staples have some specials under a pound.They are normally by their end of line stuff.
  • My son sells on Ebay and believe it or not, he gets ALL his packing materials from Ebay sellers! Worth a look.

    Also use Poundland as i doubt you could buy Jiffy envelopes cheaper anywhere else

    I get them out of the bin at work and reuse packing from things I've bought. Actually, I've found I can pack most things just from a stack of old cardboard boxes and decent packing tape, plus occassional bubble wrap from the bins at work. One day I found about 20 massive jiffy bags in there. It's a crime throwing them.

    Poundland is good for bags but if you need biggers sizes go to stationary box cause they sometimes do three for the price of two.

    Just started comping again, wish me luck!!!

    When I was still at Uni in Aberystwyth I picked a load up from Paperway on Terrace Road. Quite good prices and loads of sizes. I've still got some left too.
    Boo!

    Try the 99p shop...they have 12 jiffy bags that measure 27 cms x 20 or 6 of the very large ones. Recently though I have started using the plastic posting bags, I buy them from various sellers on ebay and my most recent ones actually worked out at less than 9p each including post and packing.
