Is this true??? We have a TJ Hughes but I rarely go in it,but if it has the bargains that you guys keep mentioning from Homebargains, I will have to start going more often. Thanks :j: :j:

No sorry, I was wrong (often am). Home Bargains is part of TJ Morris. I got the TJ bit right...:p

Just checked the website... http://www.homebargains.co.uk/

Saw hat type boxes in Asda today, several colours and patterns, sets of 2 reduced to £2 something

Went to Asda looking for hat boxes today no joy :mad:
However, they have masses of gardening stuff reduced
Kids Garden Tool Sets 75p
Twist Wire 27p
Hose Guns 66p
Jeyes BBQ Cleaner 77p
Pack of 4 garden candles 75p (they are about 2.5" high and are mini steel buckets with a candle inside)
Mini steel planter pots 50p (again like a mini steel bucket about 5inches high)
Balls of green garden string 49p
Herb Stakes 37p

I think everyone will be having gardening baskets next year

Haven't got an Asda within 20 miles of us...............:mad:

I'm doing a gardening hamper for ex foster daughter for her birthday next year.........got a lot of stuff for her already but bound to come across more

Rusty that basket is really nice I can't believe how cheap it is, well done.

Mary43 my nearest Ikea is about 50 miles away & I haven't been there yet

Mary was it you who mentioned seeds being sold cheaply somewhere?
I need some seeds now to go with the rest of my stash which I am going to put away and pull out end of Jan.

crystal - oh eck............can't remember now whether it was me or not. Something was mentioned on the Greenfingers board I think and Woolworths were selling some seeds cheap but not in our branch which is typical. You often find them given with a gardening magazine but not sure this is the right time of year. Always worth a look in the newsagents. Could do with some myself to keep for ex foster girls basket
Try Greenfingers and do a 'search' on there

:wall: rainmac - I just went totally green with envy...........why haven'y we got an Asda ??? Why do we have to have co-op and somerfield ??????

And have we got a Wyvendale round here ?????? No we have not !!!!:mad:

Yes I just went over onto that board to have a look too, have to say some interesting stuff - haven't been there before.
They said Lidl do seeds from 29p in Spring but at the moment Wilkos; Instore/Poundstretcher & Woolies have them I shall try and have a look on Thursday and report back. Haven't got a Wyvendale either
