If you are tempted to invest in solar lights, speaking as someone that has been buying them for several years, one of the best buys is at B&Q. An offer they have at the moment is for packs of 2 at about £3.78, but if you buy three packs (6 lights) you get them for less than £9. Lord knows how it worked out, but I bought 6 packs = 12 lights, and the total about was £12.12p or there abouts, mind you I did get pensioner discount.

These lights are either pale blue, lemon or pink.

Currently including my old lights, I have 44 !, (it looks like bloody Blackpool).
