Soft drinks and water bottles for wedding

Hi,

Does anyone know of any website where i can order a bulk of fizzy drinks/water bottles for a wedding function. Want to order quite a few large 1.5 or 2L bottles. Have checked out the main retailer websites, but prices are quite high, and was wondering if anyone knew of any sites where i could order cheap bundles etc.

Thanks.

  • Do you or anyone you know have a Costco/Macro card? The prices are very reasonable for soft drinks

    Didnt think about Costco or macro will give them a try if i can find someone. Had a look at Bookers, but their prices are same as supermarkets.

    I did see sainsburys have some deals, but its just the hassle of filling up 50 trolleys with bottles lol. Thanks anyway guys :)

    If you go to the customers service at your local Sainsburys or whichever supermarket you use, they can arrange for you to collect a bulk order without having to fill a trolley, I've done it when I wanted a large number of French sticks for a function. They might even do a special deal if you ask.

    Unfortunately the costco etc are nearly same price as super markets. the supermarkets are cheaper when they have bogo deals. sainsburys will deliver if you order online saving you the hassle of carrying etc

    You may find that the big supermarkets may offer sale or return if you speak to them nicely. We've done it before with Morrisons when our local Lions Club has had a function. They also gave us free glass hire.

    Checked out all the supermarkets today in my local area (morrisons, sains and Tesco) and got friend to see what Macro were offering. Also previously checked Bookers. Sainsburys have the best deal going on drinks Buy 1 get one free 2litre bottles. So went in and asked if they had packed bundles or if they could deliver it, but they couldnt do either, also checked their website to see if they have the offer, but no luck. So had to go back in and buy 200 open bottles (looked a right plonker lol, but had a bit of a laugh with some folk.....needed something to water the plants with due to water shortage)..... A hassle but got there in the end.

    Many thanks for your help chaps.
