Cellophane

Options
Hi,

I was wondering where I could get cheap cellophane wrap from for cheap presents?

I have seen some on ebay for about £3 (inc. P&P) for 10m, but I was wondering whether there is anywhere where I can better this price on the high street...

Thanks a lot

    Partners do 10m rolls for £4.97, sorry - haven't seen them anywhere else.

    Hobbycraft sometimes have some
    good offers on their cellophane

    Depends how much you need have
    you tried your local florists ? Very
    often they will sell it by the metre
    it can some times work out cheaper
    or try roasting bags 10 for a £1
    in Asda just cut them up if they
    are too big

    I don't really need any particular amount- I will buy some and them use it for presents until it is all gone, even if it takes me 20 years!!

    I might drop into my florists on my way home tonight and see what they say. I will also put some roasting bags in my shopping trolley next week!

    I spoke to one of our local florists on the market and they could do me 100m for £10. It would take me 20 years but I would have it if I needed it:cool:

    Gangstabird I would definatly go for that
    if you think about it how many small rolls
    will you get through thats a good price
    because a roll that size is £10.50 + vat
    in our wholesale flower market.
