mse or hotukd type site for builders material

Hi,

Does anyone know of any site like hotukdeals or MSE that have forums specifically about deals at the likes of B&Q, Wickes, Homesbase, Selco, Screwfix etc etc.

I'm renovating my house from top to bottom and need plenty of material and found the difference in price between stores astonishing. The problem is that the stores in my local areas aren't close by and I have to drive from store to store to find the best deal - if it was available on the web I would save both time and money (as I have done on various occassions on MSE and hotukd).

Any help appreciated.

Regards

Mark

    Not that I've found. :(

    Depends on what you want really. If it really is building materials then get an account with a local builder's merchant as they are certainly cheaper than the sheds and if you get your face known, they will discount for you. You can often just ask in small independent places.

    B&Q go through quidco, so If you are using a lot from there, definately worth a look :) I think you get 5% back :)
