Tesco value - rollwrap wrapping paper, bright red, 2m for 10p!

This is on offer at 15p each, buy two get one free, so 10p each roll. I bought this today instore, not checked to see if online yet.
It is decent quality too, not 'thin and easily torn'.
I bought this to go with the ribbons on offer on this forum.
Together you should end up with classy, wrapped presents! :)

    Thanks, I saw this the other day, but was a bit wary that it would be really thin and just end up tearing. If it's not too thin, then it's a great price.

    I bought a load last week for a craft project for my children's charity group and it was brilliant. I thought it would be too thin and crappy to use for actually wrapping presents, but it was fine, so I ended up buying more to use for presents, as I already have some gorgeous fancy ribbon that I got in the sales in Jan, so some plain simple paper is just what I needed!

  • I bought some of the wrapping paper today.

    They also have matching gift bags. Medium size are 20p each!! Also on 3 for 2.

    There were all different sizes and all cheap.

    I bought 3 rolls and I have to say it's well worth 10p/roll on 3 4 2.
    Its not the thickest and the red is a base colour not metallic, but otherwise it's pretty good.

    I actually prefer the redness to the standard highly metallic very dark reds you get but it doesnt cut as well as the thicker foil papers (I like to slide the open scissors through the paper to get a neat straight cut.

    Thanks OP

  • I've got some of this for wrapping stocking stuff up with!
    I also bought some of the gift bags, which aren't the best but perfect for work secret santas or little presents!

    Wish more places sold the kraft wrap style paper as I love presents wrapped in this with big scrummy bows!

    Yes I had some the other week - great for Xmas but also birthdays.
    They also do red bags on 3 for 2 as well - about 20p each I think so stocked up on those too.
    Noy available online - annoys me as I usually do online shop and miss out on all these bargains.

  • Great paper, have stocked up on it, as it can do birthdays, weddings, babies, pretty much anything throughout the year

  • I got some of this. It's great! I prefer plain paper as I like to add my own flair - I have been decorating mine with hm snowflakes and the silver ribbon left over from our wedding. The gifts are looking fab! :-)

    Asda is also doing cheap paper, red with spikey silver stars, so that will work throughout the year. Theirs is 17p for 2m.

    I didn't like the Tesco value gift bags as they were rubbed at the edges and the red had come off.
