    Where is everyone buying their wagos from at the minute ? I'm after a bulk order to stock up for a bit so the cheapest the best really. My local wholesaler is about the same price as screwfix but I'm sure there must be better deals out there somewhere......

    Buying cable in bulk!

    Does anyone here buy cable in bulk? Toolstation prices are pretty good, 100m of 1mm T&E £30.48 but is there anywhere that I could buy say 1000m or maybe more at a lower price than that? Just seems to make sense to buy in bulk, unless of course they change the colours!! :smiley2:

    The false economy of buying crap accessories....

    This is pretty obvious, I guess, but I need to get it out there .... I'm doing a rewire on a small house at the mo and trying to keep costs low, so I purchase an attractively priced pack of Rose/pendant sets from a well known large UK retailer. Fine. This plus a small margin will keep things...
