Sticky Plastic for covering books?

Post by SunlampVexesEel »

I know there was a thread recently that covered this topic but I've lost my reference to it...

... anyway...

Stocks of sticky transparent plastic for covering books at SVE HQ are running low...

Where can I buy some more?

My old roll which I have had for many years is now running out.

Thanks in advance,
SVE

We've been kicking it around a bit on the Birmingham thread. Staples do exercise-book-sized covers at about £1.15 for A5-sized and about £1.35 for "standard" exercise book size. Take one with you, obviously. Pricey but probably worth it for the time saving...you can get the sticky plastic there as well for those awkward ones that don't fit it either.

Wilkinsons do it to along with bright clear plastics (yellow,orange etc) in case they are allowed to be more creative. :)
