Suckers (for blinds that is)

Post by Rich Tea »

Hello all,

I'm fed up with my thermal blinds falling on my head in the night, plus getting them to stay where they are before bed seems to be the bigest chore of the evening.

The original suckers are old and in need of replacement. I see JK sells packs of 10 for £8.50 but considering I need about 40 odd, that's at least £34 and thats half the price of a new set of blinds!

Has anyone found a cheaper supply of these (or similar) suction cups that do the job?

I tried gaffer tape, but even that doesn't seem to work.

Cheers

you can get them from pound shops. dont get the ones with the metal loop thingy there poo. the ones with the clear plastic j hook work ok.

That's a kind offer Leroiandjayne, I might just try the pound shop route though as I need a job lot. If the pound shop option falls flat on it's face I might just be in touch. Cheers all
