    I wanted some only to find newspaper had misprinted, said 14.8mtrs by 2mtrs infact only 1.8 mtrs x 2 mtrs so i am gutted, and not happy, but is was a bit cheap really!

    I popped in today with my nan, I was only interested in the bin, but then thought I'd be emptying it every day!

    I did pick up a rug (Oakley Red) discounted from £79.99 to £39.59 and also a 16" pedestal fan from £13.96 down to £6.98 :D

    Anyone built their shed yet? Was going to get one, but someone at work said the cheaper ones don't withstand winds very well. If I go tomorrow, probably won't be any left - and I didn't know about the delivery option!

    This is just a cheap trick by B&Q to get customers through the doors. I wanted a £10 hedge trimmer, but guess what, they didn't have any. To advertise something the either don't have or have extremely limited supplies of, is at best annoying and at worst fraudulent.

    I am really not going to waste my petrol to see if I can save a couple of quid in the unlikely event they would actually have anything they advertise.

    Good to hear some of you die-hards managed to bag some of the stuff though.

  • Went to B&Q in Hitchin last night (approx 6pm) and managed to get an electric lawn rake for £20 - they had about 10 left.
