Ordering new sets of chips for cash game in my local. Originally started with just 5/6 players but now the demand is there for two tables so we need to order a new set. Advice needed on how many i would need for two tables of 10 playing1/2 NL and also what denominations should we get?? Any help appreciated. Ta.

Denoms needed, €1, €5, €25 and €100

As for hoe many, it depends how deep this gets

get at least 300 €1 and 300 €5 chips, it's very frustrating in some clubs when 3 people need change every hand because there aren't enough small chips. Get more if you use them in rake, tips, etc. Probably you should get more like 500 anyway, if the price isn't a big problem. Especially €1s, because they get lost/taken as souvenirs, etc.

Then a couple of hundred €25 chips and as many €100 chips as you need, depending on how big the game is this might be 20 or 200.

Caveat: not speaking from experience, so take this with a pinch of salt...:)

Hovever, based on the denoms above and given 20 X €200 starting stacks it could look something like:

Starting stack:
15 X €1
12 X €5
3 X €25
1 X €50

This would mean you would need 300 x €1, 240 X €5, 60 X €25, 20 X €50
Throw in a few more 50s and 100s to cover if the game gets deeper..
