We bought 1000 m2 some while back for 50p a M2. the were decent quality but 200x100 white and olive stripes.....we got rid of the lot refurbing factory toilets.

These Pilks were only £2 a m2, 6 x 6 whites, good quality, just end of line clearance stuff.



I only bought one box, and have still got half left....lol

This was a freebie for my dear old mum.

Was approached recently by a woman when loading up timber flooring who wanted a price to laya al aminate floor. She said it was a big lounge and the laminate had cost her £150 and the shop quoted 300 to fit.

Told her without seeing it {she didn't know the size}that if it was a big room it might be a fair price for labour. She couldn't seem to get her head round the fact that metre for metre the price for laying would be about the same no matter what price the laminate.
