    Anyone near Ellesmere Port, Cheshire? Their big B&Q is closing in Feb and apparently there is 20-40% off most things at present. Might be worth a look if you're passing by.

    Won't be going myself as I don't need anything and don't want to be tempted by reductions on the unnecessary! :money:

    Go on Wednesday when the old people get 10% off as well:cool::T:T

    The Birds Eye coupon are the ones in the T Mag and say any Birds Eye products. Coupon is on page76. Tried to use 3 on self service but said product not purchased.
