Looking for cheapest place to buy wipers

I've usually just bought wipers from Halfords but I'm sure there must be a cheaper way to do it. Can anyone let me know of any websites they've bought wipers from at a good price? I will go to a shop if anyone can recommend one but don't want to go to scrapyards...

Thanks for any tips!

    As above, and get their own brand aero twins as they are excellent.

    Wilkinsons do quite a good range of wiper blades.

    Thanks, I was looking at a cheaper twin pack by Federal Mogul for £7.30. Their own brand ones are £9.88 - do they last longer do you know?

    I got my last set through Amazon.co.uk. Wilko wipers used to be rubbish, though very cheap, however they seem to use better quality rubber these days.

    Halfords are way over priced! I bought one of those falsh flat type blades for about £6.99.

    I used wiperbades, They sent one of them the wrong size, Apologised and sent the correct one which arrived the next day. They told me to keep the wrong one.
