  • When I did my OH's 30th party I ordered the unfilled balloons online and then got them filled for 50p each at a local party shop, worked out much cheaper than buying them already inflated

    If you have a 'Card Factory' nearby, they are about £2.49 for the foil balloons and packs of 8 latex balloons are £1.49 if I remember rightly. The foil ones include the price of filling and the latex ones are about 25p per balloon to fill.

    Asda do good deals, also look on ebay for the helium kits if you are doing a lot of balloons, they can work out cheaper. Failing that, possibly don't have helium balloons and go for standard balloons which are tied to the ceiling or table, they are a lot cheaper.
  • have you tried your local garden centre? Just a thought as I managed to order some from ours (which is right at the end of our road - very handy) for a very good price, even cheaper than all the card shops locally. I think it was about £4.50 for 4 balloons last summer. They were foil ones with 90 printed on them.
