    Default Coloured card recommendations

    Hi all, I'm looking for a pack of coloured card of bog standard bright colours but all I can fink is glitter card, autumn shades card, neon card etc...I wouldn't have thought it was so difficult!! Any recommendations? I'm after something cheap, doesn't have to be exceptional quality but needs a regular red, blue, black, yellow, green etc...

    Amazon call it 'bright' card or possibly 'rainbow'. I'd try pound land or similar for cheap stuff. Rymans has nice card but pricey.

    What about 'The Range'. Do you have those stores near you? Although be warned, everytime I've gone in for one thing I end up spending approximately £80.

    What about The Works?

    A4 Vivid Card - 20 Sheets | Art & Craft - Card at The Works

    They have various different packs for £1, but if you use the code PAYDAY20 you can get it for 80p a pack.

    Delivery is free if you spend over £20. It probably wouldn't be worth ordering just a couple of packs of card, but if you want any other things it would be worth doing an order for £20, getting 20% off and free delivery

    Thanks for all the ideas guys :-) I got it in eh smiths in the end - half price at £3.49 loads more than your ideas but by the time is paid for p&p with anything online etc plus probably added a couple of extras to my shopping basket (!) I didn't think it was so bad :-) x
