oh - did not know that, im not that surprised really, they are a pretty badly run outfit in my opinion, they are disorganised like a corner shop hardware store on a grander scale. Most of the shops are dusty and full of old stock too

Id rather they stayed open mind you as all competition has to be good for the customer

Not sure if they are competition at all. I went in looking for replacement bolts a few months ago. Bolts? Sorry, we don't stock things like that. That was the 1st time I'd been in a Budget for over a year. It looks like a bigger £stretcher. Before that I thought it was a DIY store in competition with Homebase and B+Q.

Have to agree their stock had become very limited over the last few years, I rarely used them unless it was paint or something i knew they would have .

Is that 3ftx3ft, or 3mx3m? If it's the latter, I'd be interested enough to drive to one.

I was in on Saturday and their paint was on 10% off which was a bit disappointing.

CLOSING DOWN SALE - personally I think its just a marketing scam to get people in the doors. Last month it was UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT. The shop is full of the biggest load of c**p and watch out you might think your getting a bargain, but its probably for sale cheaper elsewhere.
