Helium!

Has anyone bought a helium canister and balloons for a children's party (just want normal balloons - not bothered by the foil ones)?

Where is the cheapest place to get them from?

Thanks

I think I have seen in Asda for about £30??
Not sure if this is a good price.

Thanks, will have a look there.

We just bought a cannister with 50 balloons and ribbon off e-bay for about £30

We bought ours from Asda with a food order. Comes with balloons and is absolutely great. DD loved it (though the balloons aren't brilliant and don't stay up long - a few days) and it means you can buy/order foil balloons from other places and fill them.
Ours is in the garage waiting for another birthay to use it up.

hellsbum - approx how many balloons did the canister fill? Never sure if they are being extremely optimistic with their estimates!

The canister says you can do 30 x 9" inch latex balloons or 16 x 18" inch foil balloons.
We did about four foil balloons and about 20 latex as didn't have time for more!

It's gone into the garage without us really knowing how much is left for the next party.
