Bigger is best, it holds more trapped air

You  Should be able to buy it off the roll at B&Q.

Yep! but 'tis darned expensive from there!  Better buying from Twowests or Edwin Tucker.

How much is it there?

I ran out yesterday ( found the clips though, thanks) so I went to the Big Yellow Storage place and they sell it at .69 p per metre for large BW. I thought that was ok.

That is a lot cheaper than B&Q, I think theirs is £1.75 a metre!! Well done you!  :)

Crikey. I had to renew some this week and at our local DIY store the large bubble was £2.49 per mtr. I bought 4 mtrs of the small for £4.80 so still very expensive by all accounts. Our nearest B & Q is 10 miles away.  Lorna.

Got a roll from work, 1.5 x 100 mtr, fella said "take it, it only costs £7-8 a roll,"
nice profit for someone.
