B&Q Water feature - was £199.98 now £20!!

http://www.diy.com/nav/garden/garden-d-cor/water-features-ornaments/water_features/-specialoffers%3EMORE75

Can be reserved, however, as we have found out previously, reserving doesn't necessarily mean you get it, so best to go to a store if you want one.

    Well I tried looking for stock in various BQs in large swathes of Cheshire, Staffordshire and Shropshire and none anywhere of either. Very sad about this :(

  • Thanks op would be great for MIL but no stock near any of the KT13 stores,good luck to anyone that finds one :T
  • Looks a bit like bleak corporate art - I wouldn't be too sad if you can't find any!

    According to HUKD they're reserving but no stock..I tried 4 stores, reserved but then called to say no stock...typical B&Q reserve system:mad:
  • I've just had a shock - I reserved one of the £10 ones a couple of hours ago, for collection after 1pm tomorrow. I just got a phone call "This is B&Q ...". I was fully expecting the 'sorry we've got no stock' line but she said she'd got it ready and waiting for me already!
  • Pah, phoned the store I had reserved at and sure enough they have none left. Really annoying system!!
