I was just wondering whether its worth using a company such as baker ross etc with their high delivery charge or make do with high street shops.
What do you do??

I buy mine from our local crafts shop or the pound shop :)

The pound shop, home bargains, wilkinsons, tesco and whs all have good craft things at reasonable prices
I do buy from baker ross but usually order with a few other childminders so we can get money off and free delivery

At the moment for my own children (well child as baby is only 10 months old!) I get bits from elc...their bottles of paint are £1 each and they have 9 colours. I have purchased most of their crafty bits!
I get colouring books from places like the pound shop as they do big thick ones!
Asda also have a good range of bits and reasonable prices (although that may depend on the size of your local store)

Anywhere that's cheap:D . Poundland, Wilko's, Tesco, market, Scrap store, The works etc etc
To find out if there is a scrap store near you try

They have cheap and recycled craft materials. Ours is fantastic:)

everywhere and anywhere!
wilkies and poundland are great ( as was woolies:( i'll especially miss their value glitter )
some i get from elc, and other stuff i get from baker ross! (but like others, a group of us get together and do one large order!)
it depends what i want and how quick i want it and how much time and energy i am prepared to spend looking for it!

I like baker ross for doing nice things at easter and other special celebrations, wilkinsons are great for cheap bits too :)
