Sources of cheap anti-weed material?

[headburro]

Hi all,

I've seen a roll of woven polypropylene at the local garden centre I wondered if it was good value or not. It's 12m long by 1m wide for £13.

If not, can anyone suggest where I can buy some cheaper?

Cheers,
Head Burro.

in Country kitchen magazine, they suggest using heavy duty plastic woven sheets used under decking and paving slabs-from DIY stores-and weighted down with plastic milk bottles filled with water.
