Market? Bastins. Wilkinsons.

LadyOfWaffle · 26/11/2007 17:11

Little post office type shops usually. Or those shops that have mops and buckets and random things outside?

Wheelybug · 26/11/2007 17:12

Asda had some really really cheap - can't remember how much though.

sparklygothkat · 26/11/2007 17:12

SoupDragon · 26/11/2007 17:12

Ikea if you happen to be close to one.

Costco do a pack of 250 sheets for about £8-9.

LadyOfWaffle · 26/11/2007 17:14

cremolafoam · 26/11/2007 17:17

lidl cheap and not so nasty- lots of colours

or use lining paper( about £1.50 for 10meters and get kids to potato print it

Asda do some for 16p a roll, think it is 2 metres, quite a nice design on it and in our Asda comes in red or silver.

paulaplumpbottom · 26/11/2007 17:19

By some Brown packing paper and wrap presents in it tied with red yarn. It actually looks really good

smeeinachristmastreeinnit · 26/11/2007 17:20

crikey! i hate to think how thin the 16p a roll stuff is!!!

Wheelybug · 26/11/2007 17:20

SGK- thats what I saw - I was . Probably terrible quality but doesn't really matter for this !

cremolafoam · 26/11/2007 17:21

loads on here

fruitymum · 26/11/2007 17:23

costco

sparklygothkat · 26/11/2007 17:25

I am going to get the 16p paper, only because it gets ripped off and binned anyway

MrsGuyOfGisbourne · 26/11/2007 17:40

Am on my way too right now to ASDA - deffo agree just gets ripped off, the cheaper the better!!!!!

Furball · 27/11/2007 07:16

last year I got realy nice paper (but thin)for school fair at 16p a roll in tesco, it was their value range.

andiemisletoe · 27/11/2007 07:24

ikea or matalan both have good ones

biglips · 27/11/2007 07:29

you have to be careful buying really cheap wrapping paper as they rip easily whilst wrapping the pressies up.

saltireflyingatHampden · 27/11/2007 08:01

The 16p Asda one is only 2m long, it doesn't last long. I've got 2 rolls,each about 15/20 metres for £1.99 each at Wilkinsons

berolina · 27/11/2007 08:56

Brown paper, pages with full-page pics from Sunday supplements, or aluminium foil! Done well, they all look fab.

Hallgerda · 27/11/2007 09:05

Brown paper, a set of stamps from a craft shop (or potatoes) and some paint/ink/whatever. Then get the children to work/play on it.
