please move this, if I have put it in the wrong section!! raspberry

I just wondered where you purchased your postal bags (like jiffy ones) I have bought some from WHSmith’s and Post Office, but they are quite expensive and I can’t by them in bulk, so ends up costing lots :(

Any help/direction would be brill!!

Thanks

love ktj (sunburnt!!)

If I have to buy, then The Range, but I always keep any that are in decent condition from the post and beg them from work if they are in incoming post!

I keep any of the padded envelopes that come my way, I have usually wrecked the jiffy bag types in my haste to open them :p

There are over 2300 listings for padded envelopes, and jiffy mail bags here:

http://search.ebay.co.uk/jiffy-bags_W0QQfromZR40QQfrtsZ50

but if you narrow it down, I usually go for something like this
