I've always wanted one of these (2nd favorite piece of office equipment, obviously a laminator occupies the top spot ;) ) and almost got one in the January sales in Staples.
However, my dad phoned me today from Netto to say they had them in for £14.99!!! This includes 20 back sheets, 20 front sheets and 20 combs - a bargain I think!
Just hope the laminator doesn't get too jealous :D

That sounds brilliant.
I also want a binding machine and looked at one in Rymans the other day....it was £29.99 and then you had to buy the combs themselves.
I don't have a Netto near me :crying: :crying:

Binders are great I use mine to make every child I mind their own personal book containg all their permission forms, their personal details and a copy of their contract. It keeps them together and looks really professional. Have doe the same for my policies.

ooooh that sounds fun, I love new toys. :)
Do you think the refills of the combs would be easy to get? Do any type fit all machines?

you can get them from most stationary places and are quite cheap too.
I havent found any that dont fit my machine.

Ooh ooh I've got one too.
Wouldn't be without it. I bind everything my welcome book, my policies and procedures and my permission forms for each child.
It does make your forms look professional and of course they are all kept together
As for your laminator getting jealous course it won't. Laminator and binding machine is a match made in heaven:laughing:

I've always wanted one of these (2nd favorite piece of office equipment, obviously a laminator occupies the top spot ;) ) and almost got one in the January sales in Staples.
However, my dad phoned me today from Netto to say they had them in for £14.99!!! This includes 20 back sheets, 20 front sheets and 20 combs - a bargain I think!
Just hope the laminator doesn't get too jealous :D
I've got one of these too, i haven't used it yet and tbh i bought it for hubby to do his uni work and then bind as it costs £5 a time to bind at uni
but i am intending to do everything i can
so if it can't be laminated it can be bound

I have just got one of these binding machines, I managed to get it from my local freecycle site, so it cost me nothing and I love it, my wecome pack looks so much nicer. I got a laminator at Christmas and gone a bit crazy with laminating :blush:
