Paperchase wrapping paper and tags

Options
Just back from Bromley shopping. Paperchase still have bargainous wrapping paper - not just xmas either. I bagged 2 rolls of lovely xmas purple damask-esque paper (5 metres with 5 mathcing tags included) for 35p each (reduced from £3.50). I also found they had rolled up sheets of their old stock general wrapping paper. I got 5 sheets of a boys monkey design for £1 and 2 other designs for the same price. Will be perfect for my sons little friends birthdays. I spent a total of £3.70!!! To finish off my wrapping sets I bagged some cards in primark (8 for a £1) so Im all sorted for birthdays and xmas this year for less than a fiver. Hope other paperchases have some of these wrap sets left - good luck!! :j

    ooooh! Another Bromley resident.

    I went in yesterday and saw that stuff but didn't need any unfortunately. They also had some gorgeous boxed striped organisers which were considerably reduced, although I can't remember how much by.. Again, not something I use.

    Hello Bromley person!!:beer: That paperchase is brilliant - they seem to have quite a bit of their xmas stock left but my friend and I have more or less polished off the box of purple 35p wrapping paper. The other wrap is amazing quality. I think they are just getting rid of old stock - its not xmassy. A great buy if you have kids - at that price they can cut out the characters for some good old cutting and sticking!

    Well actually I live in Chislehurst but close enough.

    I love paperchase paper, it really is good quality. I have enough paper for presents and I don't have kids or know any old enough to make use of it for cutting and sticking. I thought about it for card making but then I remembered I'm a 3rd year uni student struggling with the work load anyway and who am I to kid myself that I'll have time for that any time soon :rotfl:

    I hope someone else has good use for the clearance paper.

    Now you've said that I remember there being patterned rolls of sticky back plastic on offer, I can't remember what it's called but I used to use the clear version to cover books.

    Paperchase in London Victoria had loads of Easter stuff reduced today. Easter gift bags 50p, Easter wrapping paper 10p a sheet and Easter hanging decorations for 75p a box. Loads of other plain paper for 10p as well.
    Though it was strange they had Easter stuff reduced, maybe it was last years Easter stock.
