    B&q sell 3 x 50l for £11. That works out cheaper. They also do 125l for £7.97. The bigger bag is extremely heavy. I stopped buying it for this reason.

      I have bought the 125 litre bags of MPC before. They are very very heavy. Best to avoid unless you are a younger member of GC.

      My local Wilkos has everything reduced to clear, a £16 good size blowaway greenhouse for £4, pots and trays for pennies, fertilisers and even Orchid compost for a song.

      I only need plant labels as I'm down to my last couple of hundred.

      Did they have reduced plant labels?

      In my local Wilko - pots, cells, trays, bamboo canes and BBQs 50% off. Everything else (incl plant labels) full price :frown: But different Wilkos have different reductions, so worth checking out some others.

      But found 150g sachets of dog food reduced to 20p (from 60p ?). 40% Dolphin friendly Tuna, 10% rice, 5% peas 5% carrots + sunflower oil, minerals, fish oil, chicory and yucca extracts. Best before Aug 2021. Dog will occasionally get half a packet with his dry dog food & bran as a treat as he loves fish. Got all excited when I found it online also at 20p Wilko Nature's Best Tuna, Rice & Veg Complete Dog Food 150g | Wilko until I scrolled down and found 'available instore only'.

      Called in another Wilko store yesterday and their reductions were different. Pots, cells and trays had been completely cleared, so I assumed knocked right down, but bamboo canes and BBQ stuff were still full price. Tomato fertilizers and chicken poo pellets 75% off.

      No, they've reduced their brand new stock shortly after putting it out. Checking online, only some seeds are reduced there by 50%, but the reduction came off everything I bought instore.

        The Ramsgate Branch only put the gardening stock out 3 weeks ago at full price, still I've have all I need for this season, don't see the point of buying for the sake of it even when things are reduced.
