    Hmmm, do go before I start work on friday. I know someone who works at B & Q, might have to see if she can ba me some stuff.
    Money, money, money, must be funny....in a rich mans world.


  • I've never heard of this kind of sale before?!...must've been asleep....so what's the procedure? do we just run around the store at top speed looking for GGG signs? or does it get published on a leaflet/ website? im looking for lawn feed and a nice big plant for a planter, and a mower..anyways, if somebody could enlighten, it'd be great!thanks
  • Would any B&Q workers know if the additional 15% offered on kitchen bits(which annoyingly ran out 17th April) is going to be run again soon....or even if there is any likelihood of getting this if one asks nicely?!?

    Cheers Paul Cr

    Paul - I was buying from their trade desk a few months ago and mentioned that I might be after a kitchen soon - the staff there very clearly indicated that they'd be able to beat any of their colleagues quotes for ANYTHING in store - (nothing like teamwork is there?) and instructed me to get the kitchen designed by their kitchen planners, but not to order anything, but to go straight to trade & they'd give me a better deal.....
    if your store has the same desperate target-driven sales people on their trade desk, they might be delighted of your custom.

    Hi - up to now there are only the items listed above that are in the 3G sale and yes, it's a case of getting there BEFORE opening if you are desperate to get something and hope for the best! The items are USUALLY all displayed at the store entrance (subject to space) but if not then they are displayed in their correct depts with big GGG signs on.

    I believe that the offers are all advertised in the red tops either Tmw or Thurs, and will deffo be on here, plus the B&Q site - https://www.diy.com. Do check the times your store opens cos some are 7am and some are 8am.

    My mate is back in work tmw nite so should be able to tell more about prices etc Thurs a.m. :)
