    Buying cable in bulk!

    Does anyone here buy cable in bulk? Toolstation prices are pretty good, 100m of 1mm T&E £30.48 but is there anywhere that I could buy say 1000m or maybe more at a lower price than that? Just seems to make sense to buy in bulk, unless of course they change the colours!! :smiley2:
