Cheap paint?

NilesD

Why hello there.

Just wanted to know if anybody had the inside scoop on where I can buy some nice cheap paint.

I'm looking for tins of white to paint my room with, which it has needed for a long time now.

I'm close to a lot of large department stores, so I could probably get to any of the big chain stores, but they all seem so expensive, which is why I'm asking here before I go and spend money unnecessarily.

Any ideas, anybody?

Hi there - buy "your home " magazine - it costs £1.99 and on pg 69 there is a voucher for a free 2.5 litre tin of paint ( emulsion ) from Focus. Theres a thread on shop but don't drop.

You need to check your store aren't closing or they won't accept the vouchers.

I'v h ad a few "free " tins - just got to do the painiting!
