Cheapest caddy liners?

Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: For legal reasons I have to discourage swapping, buying and selling on the forum (please see this rule). While it can be a very useful way of saving money it relies on a certain amount of trust between members and as such can cause problems (and has in the past). If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

Does your council not supply them?

Ours does.

I line mine with newspaper then throw the lot in the composter - costs nothing. the paper absorbs any liquid from tea bags and coffee grounds too.

I just use newspaper too, use the weekly free rag we get through the door so free!

Our local Poundworld has small 5l for £1. They don't fill the caddy, and I am possibly using more than the Wilko ones, but I actually found by the time i wanted to empty the Wilko ones they'd burst when I pick them up anyway.

eBay, the seller I buy from prices them at £4.99 for 50 x 6l, £8.49 for 100 and £9.99 for 120.

The co-op ones are home- compostable, unlike the other ones I've been using for the cooked food waste, and are only 6p each. (We have compost bins in the garden but the council take our cooked food and meaty waste.)

I find them useful for the compost which goes out in the garden- teabags/ peelings/ eggshells etc, and once the rest of my non-home-compostable ones have gone I'll switch to those for everything.

Our council takes food waste in newspaper too but I wonder how much paper I'd need to use to stop it disintegrating.
