I love browsing in Maplins just for ideas, I very rarely buy from them though. I still find the Ebay stores to be good value, just thought I'd throw that in to the mix too.

Have to go to Maplin again tomorrow. *Slaps self for leaving stuff so late.
Maplin is just 2 miles from my house but CPC is also just 2 miles away so... CPC rules.

Ebay for most bits. My workplace used to get 70% discounts with RS until they stopped paying the bills. Got quite a lot of stuff from them at that time. :)
