scrap stores?

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has any experience of scrap stores? I was hoping to find an affordable one as close to me as possible (Im in Surrey). The first I phoned (in Worthing) charge £70 a year plus £10 registration fee, i could buy craft kits cheeper than that compaired to how much we would use it.
I think they are a great idea, but there must be an affordable one somewhere. When I first heard about them the one closest to me used to be about £10 I think. Anyone know of any?

I think it was called SCRAPP (Surrey Community and Recycling Play Project) and a bit more searching tells me the lease on its building ran out in 1998, so maybe it died then?
I am not sure whether they are good value for individuals or not: they really come into their own if you are working with groups of children. The one in Bristol also gives a discount in the shop they run alongside, which might make it better value.
Otherwise only know of local one we use in Manchester a bit far for you tho'
