Post by: asbean on May 30, 2007, 22:13:32: I drove past. I didn't stop. I kept myself under control. But I bought a pair of shoes in another shop, and now I have a lovely box, with a green lid - just the right size for ALL my seeds.

Post by: froglets on June 01, 2007, 08:10:27: Not available in Wilcos in Cheshire.

Not that I need any more seeds, but I did pick up some barbecue skewers in the fight against the fat pigeons.

And one or two other vital bits & pieces. Honest, really vital.

Post by: shirlton on June 01, 2007, 18:06:13: They were still full price when I went in on Wednesday. I can't get in until Monday either, but who knows they may be down by 75% like they were last year.

Post by: DenBee on June 02, 2007, 17:21:39: Well I went. I said to OH as we went in, "Well they're half price, but they were buy one get one free earlier anyway, so what's the difference?" "It means you only need to buy one" he replied. Silly man - of course I did - plus another 10. And I only left it at that because he was starting to look a bit bored, stood there in the aisle with nothing to do. ;)

Post by: SueSteve on June 11, 2007, 19:01:22: I had to go to Wilko today to buy a beer kit for DH, and guess what, I couldn't resist walking down the gardening Aisles.
I popped into Wilcos today and got a little carried away!!

I got 21 packets, I bought psb, cauli, beetroot, 6 tomatoes (inc. Italian) 2 cucs, beetroot, carrot (fly resistant), kohl rabi, pumpkin, onions etc etc.

Also got some rooster poo was about £2.49 or something, a 2l sprayer £3 for spraying the rhubarb water that we have just made for spraying the brassicas, a spare £1.99 watering can, so 2 people can water at the same time, a tent (not for camping out at the allotment, I’m not hat keen) but at £6.99 you can’t grumble. Oh and the real ale homebrew kit!!! For those times when you need to relax after spending the day digging ::)
