Half price reeves artist materials!

Options
went into Tesco yesterday to pick up my weekly shop and found a nice little offer, so thought I'd share. They had acrylic paints, paintbrushes and pads all bundled together in one packet and because it was in their back to school event it was half price; £12 down to £6!:D My daughter is taking art GCSE this year so I was really pleased I could get her started. They had a sketching set and other paint types like watercolour for the same price so even though it's a bit early I thought I'd get her a few to set her up for the new year as you never know when these offers run out (I always panic that I'll regret not taking advantage of the offer! ;)).


I'm quite new to this forum and was wondering if anyone else found any good deals lately; I've got a 6yr old as well and desperately trying to find something to keep her amused and away from big sisters professional paints!

    the pound shop is great, I recently got my daughter ( she does art GCSE) a 3 pack of artist scetch pads for £1, they also have the water colours, paint brushes etc. Well worth a look in, also for canvasses, try home bargains and lidl get them in cheaply from time to time

  • Wow, thank you for the tips. Although I'm having a bit of confusion over what B&M stands for?
