    Argos is usually pretty good value.

    What about e-bay?

    Try getting some free stuff from FreeCycle! (https://www.freecycle.org)

    IKEA is very cheap for small household items. A translucent white plastic dinner tray costs only £1. It is good for small electricals too. Also try Asda for toasters (just under £6), microwaves and homewares. For just under £4 you can get an 18 piece set of highball glasses, tumblers and small tumblers (6 of each).
