I use regular ol' flat magnets like the ones that businesses use for advertising (business cards, store location, etc) and cut them up

I depotted a bunch of them yesterday as well. I went to the dollar store and bought a long roll of self-adhesive magnet for of course, one dollar.

Yeh dont by em on the internet. You'll pay more in shipping than you pay for the actual magnets. Just go to an arts n crafts store.

oh ok we have a pound store here lol so i might try that and see if not i'll find some craft stores

Magnetic sheet is much more difficult to find here in the UK than in the US and Canada. Businesses tend not to use fridge magnets to advertise and I've yet to find a crafts store that sells magnetic sheet.

I did come across this though - http://www.magnetic-paper.com/shop.asp?ID=9

I'd reckon the 0.8mm sheet would be the best. You'd need to cut it yourself but £9.99 (including postage and packing) would get you about 450 magnets 20mm x 20mm.

I found photo fronts from a store in holland called: Blokker.
They sells this photo magnets to like stick to your frigde for 1,99 euro. That's pretty cheap for here

. I cut them up and its sticky to if you remove the colorlayer on it.
