Title: where do you get your bubble wrap from
Post by: kalex on July 15, 2012, 07:32 PM
as it say's where do you get your bubble wrap from as i've looked on ebay and there's that many different size's, length's and bubble size's i got mesmerized trying to find the best deal.

or if you use them little foam packing pieces, or that thick foam sheet stuff still post your reply please.

as i'm interested not just for bmx stuff but for general items i will be sending. from nursery items to tools so any help would be brilliant

little tip: Sansburys and the apple section  ;)

a lot of there fruit come with sheets of bubble wrap amongst it - so take a trolly round with you on the next shop and take the bubble wrap carefully from the boxes of fruit that have it in - over a month youu will have a good surply of it  ;)

works for me and it's free  :daumenhoch:
boxes from halfords are free as well  ;)

never thought of supermarkets. cheers.

i already get my boxes from halfords but they put them out back in an open recycling container so i have to get them when it aint been raining. so you may have guessed that i haven't had any for a while
