Hey all
i've heard a few of you mention baker ross and just realised they are a supplier. Do you know if they are better to use than Consortium and are their products any good?

Thanks in advance

I've not used Consortium sorry but i do like Baker Ross

the only downfall I have is having to buy multipacks, alot of stuff comes in packs of 6, 18 or 36 (sorta) I need 11 and not got storage for surplus goodies so I end up buying 2 packs of 6.

price wise ... its ok, the more you spend the more incentive you gain such as free postage and a free gift, I tend to look at the site for ideas and then shop in poundland pending on what it is I'm after.

thats a good idea, i have an account with consortium which means i dont have to pay for the order straight away (i usually get one month) is it the same with Baker Ross or do you have to pay it straight away?

Thanks again

I get together with other childminders and we share the order and postage.

There's always good sales on Baker Ross's website.

I use baker ross and find them ok. Price's aren't too bad. You can also get good things for party bags as well. They have always delivered on time and never missed anything of my order. I also use a site called crafty devils where you can get paper, card, paint etc..

Have a look online and compare. They are the same company as Yellow Moon too.

Baker Ross and Yellow Moon are both the same company. If you are a member to them you can have a charity or organisation set up and a % goes to them on your order. Do you think you could have a Network of Childminders as an organisation ?? share the discounts etc ???
