I'm looking for a mini/compact shed

My garden's pretty small, but I need a shed to store my tools, compost, plant pots etc. I've been looking at some online, but they're upwards of £140 each for the wooden ones. There are some plastic ones in the £80-100 range, but I'm wary of those as (a) they just look like the sort of outside loos you see on building sites :eek:, & (b) I think they might get very hot in summer. If anyone knows of either a good place to get a reasonably-priced slim/compact small wooden shed or knows of a company that will make one (I'm too ham-fisted to do it myself), please could you let me know. Thanks.

have you looked in Argos? They've got a wooden garden store for £99 or the midi resin one for £70

The portaloo one isn't going to happen, I'm afraid - even trying to convince myself that it looks like a Tardis isn't removing the image of an outside privy from my head.

The wooden one looks good, but unfortunately Argos show it with two doors but have seen fit to only provide one.
If you've got any more suggestions, they'll be gratefully received.

I got a 6x4 wooden shed in Focus a few years ago. It was £90 but they then have discount cards etc or old person day if you have an oap you can ask.
Some Focus shops are closing down as well so maybe more discount on offer.

Thanks for that - I've got an OAP staying with me at the moment, so she might actually come in useful for this. I'll give Focus a call.

Just checked - "The FOCUS Privilege over 60s discount card entitles the authorised signatory to a discount of 10% on all purchases* made on a Tuesday (*Excluding pet food, conservatories, garden sheds, powered garden tools, gift vouchers, goods from in-store concessions or the Internet and other such products as may be specified from time to time)."

Back to the drawing board....BSC #53 - "Never mistake activity for achievement."
