where to buy nets for the windows incredibly cheaply?

it has to be a street shop rather than online as i need them like within the next two days (so going to get burgled otherwise)

also need the stuff you hang net curtains on, that wire with a plastic coating and hoops, although i could knock something up with string so not essential (but as cheap as possible)

    If it's just to stop people seeing in, put up some newspapars using sellotape or rub some windowlene on and don't buff it off.

    I was going to suggest the Birmingham Rag Market on Edgbaston Street. Curtain material is £1 a metre, so net material is probably even less. However, the OP seems unfriendly and demanding so I won't bother.

    Definitely a market.

    I'm sure there's some netting going cheap at Anfield Road, the away end goal doesn't see much action, maybe you could grab a bargain.. :)
