    Our local Netto (yes Netto!), had some in from this week for £3.99, can't comment on the quality as just saw a advert advertising them. I'm looking for the same myself for the bedroom, so will be interested to hear what anyone else says!

  • There are some cheap electrical wholesalers up and down the country. If you specify your location someone may be able to recommend somewhere.
