What was the thickness of these pouches please ?
It is possible to buy packs of 100 for £7.00 or so !!!!
I have sold office supplies for over 15 years and find that sometimes people compare products that aren't like-for-like.
A prime example of this used to be A4 copier paper, when the market was flooded with cheaper grade 75gsm paper from the far east.

If you click on the Wilkinson link in my OP you will see full description:
Description -Pouch thickness 160 micron/2x80mcn. Max. print size 210mm x 297mm.
DD has used them to laminate somethings for school and they've been fine.
I have some Tesco pouches too that I paid £5 and they are 80 microns per side.- Where can you buy 100 for £7?
- Whats the best thickness grade for the pouches

160 micron ( 80 per side ) are a standard thickness, for the budget brands and are fine for general use.
Most businesses buy 250 mic as they are that bit thicker.
As for where you can buy them, we can supply direct ( if I am allowed to say that on here ). If you are interested feel free to message me.
many thanks.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -
I’ve also been struggling to find some decent priced laminated copy paper for images and presentation use. Thank you for the link to Wilkinson’s, for such a low price I can’t say no to trying what they have. I’ve never heard of this company before.0

You can get 'em in quidland I think. Must be a pack of 10 or 20 (soz can't remember) so if you want just a few, I suggest you go thereThe quickest way to become a millionaire is start off as a billionaire and go into the airline business.

Lidl had them at 2.99 for 50, so cheaper thn Wilko's. Depends on your store though - there's 3 near me one still has them in (about 50 boxes when I last went yesterday)0
