    Wow, its a bit like a treasure hunt with these being found all over the place, not just in the stationEry :rotfl:aisle - none left in the conditioner aisle in Watford.

    The extra postage query prompted me to look on the Royal Mail Website which sells these selfsame envelopes by the 100 for £49.50.
    Still virtually alcohol free since 4/1/15. (10 Xmas/ New Year/Birthday drinks)

    Good spot, although, as a better Moneysaving suggestion, just help yourself to the stationary cupboard at work ;) (only joking of course...)

    Will I ever live this spelling faux pas down? I don't understand it, it was even spelt right in the spelling checker on my PC????!!! :cool:

    My guess is your spellcheck is American!! They can never spell, fancy spelling colour "color"!!

    thanks for the info regarding Watford - that saves me a journey after work.

    Your spell checker wouldn't have picked up stationary as incorrect as it is a valid word, it doesn't know that you don't mean standing still - all it knows is that there is a word in a dictionary that is spelt that way, therefore not incorrect :)

    Thanks OP, they were hanging off the shelves, with a £3.80 sticker on the plastic bit holding them. Checked on price checker, it was £0.75
    Picked up 11, they are very handy, saves me paying for a 1st class stamp AND elevelope, plus the inconvenience of going to buy stamps and sticking them on!
    55 envelopes to use, cool.

    Oh this was at the Colney Hatch branch, they've got more than 25 left on 4 full hanging strips. Enjoy!

    Its likely these won't be around much longer as a large extra near me has an RTC yellow SEL with £1.50 on it. They should still scan at 75p of course, but the strip was bare. I have about 30 packs of these anyway so don't need any more.
