HELIUM GAS for floating balloons
To make your balloons float you require balloon gas, which is
95% helium.
For up to 30 balloons use a disposable
helium cylinder. These cost between £25 and £29. Some large supermarkets
are now stocking these. If you search on eBay for "helium
cylinder" there are several suppliers.
| Some party shops are stocking refillable small cylinders
under the Air Products "PartyPerfect" label. www.partyperfectonline.com
