I went into my local Poundland store yesterday and bought some Poly Cloches for a quid each. Shocked  Can't go wrong really at that price! Roll Eyes  Manager says they should be available at most stores from this weekend. Grin Grin

Sheldon, Birmingham.  I've put the pin on Google Earth where my shed is, in the allotments.  It's in an area with a satellite photo which is cool!  You can't miss it, there's a bl**dy great big Airport next door!

I got some a few weeks ago, doubt they'll last more than this season, but at £1.00 a pop you can't go wrong.  They look pretty decent from picture, although haven't unwrapped them yet.

Poundshop is rapidly becoming one of my favourite places !

They are excellent for the price, and Poundland has lots of bargains for the garden.

I bought a three last year and they've been fine - will use them again this year.  Also picked up a kneeling pad and garden canes, Certainly can't complain at the price. I've bought more expensive cloches in the past and these are definately comparable.  Grin

I got some last year did a good job and the plants came on well. After the frost i cleaned them up and put them away out of the sun .I will be putting them out again soon . (Don't forget to block off the end's, or they will blow away and it helps to keep the heat in).  Wink

Got some quite good ones last year for £4.99 at Wilkinsons, but will take a look in Poundland tomorrow.  £1 for cloches sounds a real bargain! busy_lizzie

I think that these are the ones from Poundland, but I can't check that they are exactly the same as mine are on the allotment. What do you think?  The bid is £7.50 + £2+ postage

Some people have more money than sense, at perhaps £10+ total cost via ebay, the recipients will be paying £7 per metre, since the cloches are only 1.5 metres long?
