good source of mesh cup-sized strainers/infusers?

I want to buy a bulk lot of infusers/strainers so I can give to friends with the tea in them, leave places etc.

You would think its easier to find but western tea strainers are either too small, decorative, or packaged & expensive. (I am not paying £10 for a thin piece of pressed metal)

I just want something similar to the bodum ones http://www.jeffsreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/bodum-yo-yo-set.jpg

but stackable, metal if poss, and really cheap & buy in bulk.

Anyone any ideas?

I am currently googling but just wondered if you lot knew anything

Man, Aliexpress shows just how crazy-high retail markups can be. Even on Amazon a similar metal infuser is marked up about 600%..

Yup! It’s just some metal pressed into a shape.

My local tea shop sells what is pretty much the same strainer but with a cover, I think for about $12.

So yeah, any tea gifts to inexperienced friends now will come in the infuser so they can brew correctly straight away
