wilkinson aldershot - pricing error

i went into wilkinson in aldershot today and got some bargins and thought i would share them.

ant bait had 75% off but when scanned through the till it came up with 99% off code so sold them at 20P !!!

The same happended with westland slug pellets also got the for 20p was £4.97.

It seems some of the items with 75% off are scanning at 99% code so they are selling them at 20p

    they were busy marking down gardening stuff in my local one to 10, 20 or 30p, so it might be nationwide.
    I saw ant killer, wasp something (killer?paper), rose bug killer, hose connectors, own brand miracle grow, watering can heads.

    Yup, I can second (or rather third!) that. Just came on here to post my finds, loads of garden stuff down to 20p, and the student stuff still 50% off. Surely this will go down to 75% soon....!

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    hduk finds;

    All Royal Traveller by samsonite reduced to 20p
    garden slug killers
    plan food etc... many items
    hose pipe fitting anything related to that
    tennis rackets
    cricket bat
    selected toys (which was on half price sale)

    ALL priced at 20p per item.

    Selected lamp shades are on HALF PRICE

    This is at hayes store. I believe this everywhere else too




    I was in Wilkinsons (swansea) store yesterday and they had reduced all their garden products to 75% off. I noticed that in the corner of the store they had 10 packs of the 2mx3m Bamboo Screening for £2.49 per pack instead of £10 per pack.. This product is fantastic and is £20 per pack in B&Q!! Unfortunately I bought all 10 packs that were left in the Swansea branch but try your local wilkinsons as you never know, they might just have some in stock.. I put it around my garden yesterday and it looks fantastic, although I am in a lot of pain today :)





    3kg bags bbq briquettes
    Was in my local Wilkinsons and couldn't believe when i seen these for only 10p a bag. I was in the Clydebank Store and they had a full cage of them as you go in the entrance. These would be great if you have the storage for bbq's next summer. I put 15 in a trolley but my wife told me that we did not have the room in the shed. Never seen these so cheap



    Local Wilkinson had final reductions on summer goods yesterday. Loads of 75% off but the best bargain was 3Kg bags of Charcoal which rung up as 2p. I grabbed 2 bags as that was all I could carry - would expect it to be nationwide if there is any stock left.
