    For all the Ebay sellers here, I found some good deals on packaging at Wilkinsons.
    Bubblewrap 300mm x 5m x 2 for £1.20
    Bubble cushion envelopes 4 pack 240mm x 335mm x 2 for £1.20(different sizes available)
    Brown parcel tape 50mm x 60m x 2 for £1.20
    Fragile Tape 50mm x 33m at 77p
    Various sizes of plastic mail bags i.e. small 10 for £1.21
    Hopefully this is nationwide not just specific to my local.
    The post office had this size bubble envelope at 80p each:eek:

    Poundland is even cheaper for the bubble envelopes and parcel tape

    Nothing for me to add yet today and I'm off to hospital in a little while so hopefully it will still be light enough for me to take some photos for ebay when I get back

  • My ebay sold total is now £52.80... will only add them as the items are sent though.....going to only put a maximum of 3 things on a day now as I have loads to take to the post office now - think they will hate me.
