A while back Darylc, found a local bunnings store that stocked 8mm coro, (extra cheap)

After Ringing around half the Adelaide stores at the time,
I end up finding out its a Promo Item, and only 3 Stores have it in S.A.
The normal price is $29, we got at the time for $15 a sheet.

A couple of days ago i did do another ring around, 31st aug 2022

P.s. I tryed to ask Mile end for a Deal of 20sheets for $20 but they never got back to me.

P.P.S. I have been informed bunnings hate them cause there big an bulky an no one wants them.
(so try going cheaper in price an ask for more sheets)

What can you use Coro For.
-White out your complete house for using projectors
-Drawing an cutting out your own coro props (reverse cut jigsaw blade)
Also many other use's

For anyone over near Pakenham (VIC) looking, I picked up a few sheets from Pakenham Bunnings (larger one on Princes Hwy) a few weeks back at it's full price ($29) - they still had around 30 sheets at the end of the MDF aisle. I haven't ventured out to other local ones to see, just my luck to see them there a few weeks back.

Yeah, good old QLD, stock ----------------- 0
Looks like a good product though for some fun projects.
The stock stuff at bunnings if only 5mm and not cheap either.
 
I think I saw some at morayfield while I was there just now, but also officeworks has 5mm board, they call it signboard
 
Heads up this is on clearance for $7.50 a sheet, at least at Bunnings Parafield (SA). Parafield is sold out now (I took the last two), but according to Parafield's information desk there are still some available at Woodville (two sheets) and Adelaide Airport (seven sheets).

within NZ and probably AUS this produce is also used for against building foundation to protected the waterproofing membrane from the backfill / gravel ... in the volume its made and used it becomes cheap as chips ... maybe think outside the square and look in other places than Bunnings
 
I was going to our local sign shop and getting 5mm for $20 about 8 years ago, I went there just last week and it has now gone up to $30.
I did get some of this Bunnings 8mm from our local in Australind WA and last time I was there they still had some. I find it would be OK for large wall type stuff, but I prefer the smaller stuff for every day props. Easier to work with and not so bulky when you have many props.
