I've not had much look with refill kits - a lot of faffing about and
dubious success for the savings involved - and after using mx2 and
then svp for compatible carts, I eventually found these guys up in
Darlington:

They worked out at a quid a cart (for a compatible chipped Canon
MP600) and they've been indistinguishable from the Canon originals, so
personally I wouldn't mess around trying to refill at that price.

I have to say though, I was a bit dubious at first, and what finally
made me take a punt was that my niece is up that way and I thought I
could combine a visit to her with kicking their door down if they
turned out to be conmen!
