Cheers folks

    You just missed one last Friday/Saturday, but they have them regularly every couple of months so it shouldnt be too long before the next one comes along.

    Prices get increased just before 10% days so only worth buying their special deals that are advertised.Shop around, I used to work there and got staff discount ,it was still cheaper at Wickes and B&Q.

    See now I thought that too, but I found some ceramic tiles for £4.49 that were selling for £6.99 in B&Q (luckily they are opposite each other in my town so its easy to compare prices). I think its a case of making sure you check out all your options as when I was looking for skirting board Homebase wanted £24 whereas B&Q was £12!
    The moral of the story is to always shop around, where is cheaper on one thing may not always be cheaper on something else.

    Yes they do, but they only match the price and it has to be in stock in the other place. Its not really that useful an offer unless its 10% day as they don't reduce the price, they only match it.

    That's not true, Homebase staff get the same as Argos staff, 20% off at HB (except its only 10% on TVs etc) and 10% off at Argos.

    I forgot to say, the next 10% day probably isn't until Easter weekend now. However they may announce another one before then, I'll keep you posted. :D
