    I've not been instore for a few days, but looking online at Wilkos Gardening Stuff I've just noticed all their seeds are back online and are 3 for 2 (cheapest free so if buying differently priced packets you'll need to buy in multiple shops to get the best saving).

    Their plant pots, including 70mm square pots that are so useful for getting the most out of space using propagators and lights, are also back online.

    It appears as if their onion sets, shallots & spring garlic could also be 3 for 2 when they arrive, as 'spring bulbs' are stated as also being 3 for 2.

        Seeds were back in our store before Christmas and they've always kept a small selection of garden sundries this time which was unusual..

        Went in yesterday and the shelves of Christmas stuff were being condensed as more gardeing stuff comes in, seed potatoes and onion sets should be in soon and plastic pots were on the shelves :dancy:

        Bought some Westland John Innes seed compost in Wilkos (Bletchley) today, 10 litres with 33% extra free for £2.50. Hardly any bits/lumps in it.


        Seed potatoes and onion sets were both in.


        P.S. All grades of Westland J.I. instore had 33% extra.

          Wilkos seed potatoes are £3.30 for 2.5 kg. Remembering they dropped the price after a while last year, I searched through old threads and found I'd posted this on Feb 24th 2012;

            Are Wilko's seed potatoes any good? I'm a bit funny about buying bulbs/tubers/sets in a shop that doesn't have much interest in the preservation of it's stock. Like being kept in a heated shop with its lights on all day long.

            Price is tempting though....
