  • after my earlier post saying that I spoke to my local store who confirmed that they had put a chiminea and bbq aside for me, went to pick them up this morning and whaddayaknow, they were nowhere to be seen - clearly the[STRIKE] idiot [/STRIKE]person i spoke to didn't reserve them for me at all!! :mad: the staff were also moaning and groaning about the reserve and collect system, they should try using it then they'd have something to moan about!:mad:

    there absouletly rubbish i felt for the women on the till though.
    There excuse was they had a massive backlog and had not phoned me even though the shop was empty and i even gave them a extra hour.

    I ordered 2 to be collected today, tried to ring yesterday to confirm and was cut off 3 times when being put through. Went to the store about 1 hour ago fully expecting to be disappointed and there they were waiting for me. Mum and Dad very pleased with their gift and I've wanted one for ages. Well done B+Q Blackburn!!
  • I have to say I have found the staff in various stores very helpful today. I made various click and collect orders yesterday and did have a lot cancelled but after visiting a few stores today and collecting some orders have managed to get Robson BBQ, Sunlounger, Chimnea, 2 kites, wine glasses, tumblers, plastic spotty cups, garden candles, 2 man tent set, placemats, skewers, bbq tool set, salad bowls and some logs for the chimnea which were reduced to £1 and were 3 for 2. Very very pleased - thank you B&Q :beer:

    they are also holding a bbq for me reduced from £90 to £20

    This bbq is a fantastic price, and really handy foldup design, reduced from £90 to £20. Should be able to see them, 1st item on this page?...

    Don't appear to be any left to order online but loads piled up in our local store yesterday (Lakeside, Thurrock).
