    I agree the back hander comment was harsh and have deleted it

    I took it as a joke and most people I expect would do the same.
    In my head I'm laughing at the idea of the buying department of Tesco panicking that they have ordered too many BBQs and they come up the idea to send cash Martins way.

    Its not cheap compared to other similar BBQs

    Your quite right.

    I should probably have written that its not expensive for a BBQ, although there may well be similar models at similar prices available from other shops, elsewhere.

    lol.

    So a bbq wasn't quite as much of a bargain as martin thought??

    So what? U have all saved money from this site wor u wouldn't be here - no need to have a go!

    I prefer a disposable anyway - cheaper and less mess.
    I am off now to get a life, I suggest everyone does the same!

    this bbq is a bit of c*ap, i have not one but two rusting in my back garden- no im not that stupid, i didnt buy 2, my mum bought one and bro another one and both turned out to be useless, so are now rusting in me garden!

    i would advise all fellow Mse'rs to stay away from this and if indeed they must purchase one of this low quality and similar price, i suggest check out ur local garden centre/small corner shop and not Mr.T!! after all he hardly needs ....a little help from of us....

    Lay off martin, its his expertise and knowledge that we have all got to this stage where we can judge a bargain from not! well in most cases, certainly in my case being in my early twenties i know iv learnt all me bargain hunting tips from him!

    the back hander comment is just funny! lol! dont get so offended people, as if martin would ever do that, for god sakes hes always on about consumer revenge/freedon of choice and ad free! he would hardly go and do that now!

    Tesco instant charcoal is fab but i opted to buy from my local gardening centre, about a 12p difference on the 3kg bag and the little lady sat on her seat hardly has any customers, any of the time. dont get me wrong people, im not against tesco or any supermarket thats for sure, i do all my grocery shoppig there and pleasantly enjoy my clubcard deals, but i like to buy locally what i can from the smaller shops, after all if we all dont do this once a week, or some of the time at least were likely to see our local shops close down and to see Mr.T's shop being the only choice available in the future.

    Scary thought!!
