Lighting a New Build Home

Options
Hello

I've just bought a new build home and would really like to know if anyone has a top tip for purchasing light fittings? I have about 20 separate ceiling lights that need to be bought and despite asking lots of mainstream retailers and lots of on-line searching I can't find any one willing to put together a "bulk buy" package?

Surely there is a deal to be had out there...?

I've had a little success with most items ie white goods and carpets etc but the lights which are the last thing are really costly and just as the money is starting to run out!

Thanks for any help you can give.:)

    Hiya

    I used a company called TrilightLTD for help with lighting my home. They were very good and talked me through what would be best for me. They helped me save a few pound by doing my 2 bedrooms as well.

    Hope this helps you :)

    Online: try CPC Farnell. Providing you are buying say £40 worth delivery is free and quantity discounts available at trade prices. see http://cpc.farnell.com/internal-lighting&getResults=true for lighting fittings.
    Based in Preston but from my experience delivery is quick. Not everything is very lowly priced but overall often very good value.
