Laminated

ThIs is a hard one and I have been searching the net for days, seems like years.

I'm looking for laminated pouches (thats the easy part :D ), but they need to be bookmark size - can anyone help, can anyone point me in the right direction before I lose my mind? *fingers crossed*

    I have a friend who makes bookmarks to sell at charity fairs & such & she uses ordinary A4 laminate pouches to make hers. Once the bookmarks have been laminated she cuts them with a small guillotine she has, then uses the quillotine to cut the top of each individual bookmark into a pointed shape.

    Not sure if this is something that would be suitable for your purpose though.
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    I don't want to have to cut them, I am really looking for bookmark sized pouches. :)

    I've been looking since 10am ish this morning and still haven't found what I'm looking for - I think this is a no go, but please do let me know if anyone finds anything, knows anywhere? :)

    I've never seen that size and think it would be a very expensive way of doing it. I would go with Cattie's way above as I've done this before too.
    I haven't got one!

    I am looking for that particular size, I do not want to do any cutting, won't be doing cutting in fact. :)

    I used to sell laminating pouches and have never come across bookmark size ones. Largest stockest I know of is National Laminates Direct, I'm sure they're googlable and perhaps they could help you out.
    My Doctor told me that "1 out of 3 people who start smoking will eventually die." The other two apparently became immortal.
