Three drawer sea grass tower has now come "in Stock" in my local B&Q - they have never had any before !
Went in today, and Nothing to be found !!!:mad:
I could understand if existing stock has gone, and the computer is not up to date, but for a store to suddenly show stock, ( it didn't even say low in stock) but there be none....
Either new stock is out back unpacked, or someone is winding me up.
Another store is showing stock of quite a few bits - but will do as suggested and ring first before I waste petrol and time.
It might help if they actually kept their sels up to date as well - but then again everyone would see the bargains
I have got some lovely bargains already, but think the basket sets would be great to use for Xmas presents - packed with food or smellies etc just tied with a huge ribbon. Something a bit different;)
I have been after these baskets for weeks and they are still showing stock in my local but everytime i ring up there isnt any and they dont stock them
I was also going to travel to get the seagrass tower as it was saying no stock within 50 miles then last week was showing stock again i rang up the store and they havnt got any
I have had some of the rollerboxes for 50p so i cant complain but its annoying when it says the site has been updated as showing stock/no stock then you get told something different when you ring up0 -
I think that WE probably know more about what our local B&Qs have in than the staff.
I went into my local armed with a list of ean numbers for items their website said it had in stock.
All week the staff said the website was wrong, and they didn't have the stock. Finally I got a sa who was prepared to actually get off his butt and check it out - guess what, we found them !!!!
After checking the 'location' on the store computer we literally scoured the shelves, and found them - exactly where the computer said they would be.
Of course the staff didn't believe the price, and repeatedly said that cannot be right, but of course it was.:D
I was feeling so generous I even left plenty of stock for the staff to buy themselves - ALL the stock had gone next day.:cool:
I still think that they probably have the other items somewhere on the premises, but just haven't unloaded it yet and given it a location on their store system.
The moral is, try and get the staff to check their own store system, if it shows the item, and a location, then you should be in luck.
I will keep trying with the other items in the hope that someone actually gets around to unpacking them from wherever they are hidden0 -

I would be careful on the rolling boxes now as i have been asking my store for the past two weeks and they were expecting delivery on certain dates so i rang up on these dates to be told that they hadnt turned up etc but they are still 50p
Anyway i rang up last week and they told me they were expecting 12 in friday and they are still 50p but when i rang up friday they had the 12 in but when i asked the price they were £7.99 so i said how can they be clearance 1 week and full price the next
She looked on the website but thier not on there now0 -
Yea the same happened at my local store too although the manager was very tight, when he seen them flying out the door at 50p he increased the price to £2 and now they are back to full price!
