Just found that Poundland stock packs of 15" x 6 Balloons for £1. They are quite tough and take plenty of punishment. I am attaching a picture of the packet, the balloon with the punch-elastic attached, and the balloon with the punch-elastic removed (how I like to use them!). I will add a picture of one inflated, as soon as possible, showing the amazing neck.

Re: Uk poundland 15" balloons
I got several packs of them in the summer, though they were selling them in packs of 5 at the time. I really like them - nice & stretchy. Love to inflate several at once and tie them together in a cluster then bounce around on them. One or two normally pop, but it's all part of the funLast edited by Danniballoon; 12-01-2022, 20:34.Comment

Re: Uk poundland 15" balloons
They are basically the same as the Chinese ones I used to get in bags of 50. However, the ones you get now (in bags of 50) seem to be smaller and of a lesser quality. My advice is grab the poundland ones while you can👍 1Comment

Re: Uk poundland 15" balloons
Rarely ever buy balloons in shops. Always stick to amazon or balloon ace for 19 inch cattex balloons.
Still wish Tesco sold those 36 inchers. And that they sold better quality balloons.Comment

Re: Uk poundland 15" balloons
Good to discover another looner who likes Airships. I loved the Tesco Airships as you could really get rough with them, bend and distort them into all sorts of shapes and hear them squealing. Loved to bend them up and then sit on them to burst them. Thanks for reminding me about those Balloons.Comment

Re: Uk poundland 15" balloons
Here's the promised image of the Green 15" Balloon about 85% inflated. I like a little 'give' in them so that they can take more punishment, if you know what I mean, but sure I could have increased the neck length by another 2" as well as the overall size.Attached FilesComment

Re: Uk poundland 15" balloons
Nice work - I'm in Sussex and had a few of those packs. Like you, i like the soft cheap feel of them, plus the long neck make them very useful for making apple/pussy balloons. I tie four of the apples together and keep pumping all the holes until I'm completely 'done'Comment
