hi all, well i was just going to pop into wilks for a look around and to see what they had, (no chance) i came out with a bottle sprayer 5lt for £5.00, a 3 in one plant & soil reader, (water, ph, and light meter) £6.00, knee pads £1.99, a plant dibber £1.00, soil bowl sive £1.99, and a small seed set, (compost sive-seed dispencer - seedling planter dibber) £1.99, it was lucky i never had more money, or i would had to buy a wheelbarrow (£15.00) to transport all i have bought back to my car ::) :o ;D i'll have to go back next weeks, ohh happydays ;)

Oooh - I like my £1.99 Wilko kneepads - they're lovely and comfy and stay up a treat. Well, they have so far...

I got two stainless trowels for 75p each too, yesterday.
This morning I found their stash of arches, finally down to £2.99 each, so i got four, all i could walk home with(without becoming an orang-utang)
When it went through the till, it knocked off a further £3.00!
Just might pass that way tomorrow......

Went yesterday, nothing on offer at ours. Still got some stuff though - as you do. Large bowl garden sieve & another automatic bulb planter. (Got one at the plot but thought it would be good to have one for home too. (Might get OH into gardening of sorts if she has it easy to start with.....

Not adding any "arch" comments to those above....
Vanished to Norfolk for four days, forgetting to go to Wilkos. Remembered this morning and got even more arches for £2.25 each. ;D
