Photo Paper

:~(I'm new to posting so sorry if I ramble on a bit but I have a bee in ma bonnet.
The last time I bought photo paper I paid less then a tenner (think it was probably £5 actually) for 100 sheets of Kodak glossy paper from Tesco in Inverness but today I tried buying some in Thurso and was absolutely disgusted. I tried Jimbews who had 2 differently priced packs at £9 and £11 both seemed exactly the same and contained only 20 sheets. My partner had bought photo paper a couples of weeks ago from Jimbews which was 20 sheets for £5 but they had none today and delivery was going to take 2 - 3 weeks. Ended up buying it from Vantage Chemist who had an extensive range (4 different packs) but it was £13 for 15 sheet (Kodak) on buy one get one free. still worked out at nearly 50p per sheet.
Does anyone know where I can buy good quality cheap photos paper? It's so difficult to get things at a reasonable price in this county. Sorry to say it but roll on Asda and Tesco's......

yeh roll on asda and tesco,sum1 finally seen the daylight sick of paying over the odds prices

there is a site on the internet i wil find it out.....cheap cheap for a lot of sheets!

I find these lot are good and online ordering has no p&p

Or there is always Argos opening on thursday

Lidls had some last week and they are good quality. There is loads of places on the internet you can buy it from it is worth having a search.:)

Try e-Bay

One of the best ones i have come across is SVP there Paper Shop is good value for money as well and the do good cdr and dvr deals as well i use them all the time and have never had any problems

And they wonder why were all crying out for the likes of tesco asda etc pure and simple were all tired of being ripped of by local companies all the time !!!

Yes, Lidls had 210gsm Glossy A4 at £3.99 for 50 sheets, that's the cheapest I've seen. No doubt Tesco will be bigger, better and cheaper for theirs ;o)

Please pm me his phone number. It's great getting bargins off the internet but it's handy knowing somewhere local when you can't wait and the cash is burning a hole in ma pocket.

I buy mine online from Viking direct - they often have good deals.

I buy most of mine from 7dayshop.com great prices and NO VAT! if you buy the right quantity (less than £18 package)

I got the thick glossy photo paper from lidls, but They were sold out pretty quick! When I bought it locally I paid 80p for one sheet! Work out how much that would cost per 100!

Christies in wick 10 sheets for 99p

I've also bought the photo paper from the 99p shop in Wick and it's fine. I think it's 20 sheets for 99p though, it's glossy too.

Try going to:

www.theinkjetmarket.co.uk

Local service (Thurso), good prices and service. They also do inks and labels.

we always use www.7dayshop.co.uk for ink and paper not to mention camera accessories - hard to beat. we usually buy the fuji paper - great quality and price. quick delivery too!

i get mine from viking direct on internet. they have some good bargains

Lidls were selling, 50 sheet packs of A4 glossy for £3.99, great paper.

Today in Argos ...one pack for £6.99 and get one free
