Laminating Pouches

Lady_K

My daughters just gone and paid £20 for 100 laminating pouches. I think this is really expensive. Where can we get A4 pouches cheap but ok?

I rang the store where she got them from and they have said she can return them and get her money back so I'm trying to find somewhere that sells them much cheaper.

I've tried various wilkos they dont have them in stock they usually are 25 for £2.50 there but none of the stores ever has many in. WHSmith did have them at £3.99 for 50 but they have stopped having them now. But we will need regular stocks of them as she needs them for her university work so at £20 for 100 its going to turn out way too expensive

I've found the supermarkets cheapest - Tesco and Asda.

I've had packets of them from the poundshop before....20 pouches for £1 i think:D

Rexel Laminating Pouches 150 Microns A4 [Pack 100]
Only thing is it's a minimum order of £20 plus £5.95 p&p.
So by adding 4 packs = 400 pouches you'd get it for a total of £27.67
which is a hell of a lot cheaper than whats she's buying.

O , found this as well, same site.
Remember the more you buy the cheaper it will be as it's a standard P+P

Thanx, I wonder if anyone has used them before on here. They look ok though. I've never used a laminator before do you think 150 is ok then?

Being honest, i've never used this company either so perhaps 1st time round phone them up with an order and ask them any Q's you need to (although it does to me look a legit site.)

Correct me if i'm wrong, i think the microns is about the thickness of the sheets?

Anyone else help on this as i think it sounds a pretty good deal so far.


EDIT.....

It is the thickness, the higher the microns the dearer the pouches......
i think they start at 80 up to 350, so it's pretty basic, check with daughter and see what she's using already.

Again, HTH
