Best place for brown parcel wrapping...

[NotSoChicAfterAll]

Apologies, as I bet this has been asked a million times,
But I want to wrap my presents in brown wrapping paper, and want to know from experience where the best place to buy it is, as I don't want the thin stuff

I have this wonderful idea of wrapping my presents in brown wrapping paper, stamped myself, wrapped in beautiful ribbon... Although with a 10 week old DD and trying to decorate our bedroom before christmas it's going to be a hard task!

I bought a huge roll from Amazon last year, for wrapping parcels to post. Very cheap, and arrived the next day. Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of the seller, so not much help.

Pound Land or the post office

Are they good quality from pound land or the post office, would like it quite thick

Amazon do thick stuff quite cheap, 20 meters for around 6 quid

I've bought lots of this one. Wrapped lots of gifts and it hasn't ripped. Use code REINDEER for 20% off too. Or try one of these codes- DVC25 or PREF25 and it should give 25% off.

staples- huge roll of paper for about £6.

The paper is of a really good quality. I bought some from Poundland and it ripped when wrapping up.

I use it to wrap things to be sent in the post.

The stuff from the PO is good - but IIRC not large packs so prob not that cheap. Anything being sold for wrapping parcels should be a lot thicker than normal wrapping paper anyway.

Thanks Glittered

8m roll for £2.99 in Hobbycraft - nice thick paper

I bought it from hobbycraft yesterday. 8m rolls were £2.50 I think, but on 3 for 2 and there was a £5 off a £20 spend offer. Not sure if that's a regular thing - they just gave me a voucher when I went in! It's very thick 'craft' paper.

Think Wilkinson's do it too but there's not one near us. Gutted I didn't think of Amazon!

I got an enormous roll from Costco last week. It was pretty cheap but can't remember how much exactly.
