I do remember them having a sale but I can't remember what time of year. It's more likely to have been at the end of the season I'd have thought.

Hi Biffabear

i bought in a sale which was just around the beginning of January last year.

I think it was 10% off or something similar!

If they don't have a sale on at the moment the girls on the help/order desk are very helpful and if you suggest rounding down a figure they generally will!

I managed to get a further £40 off a £500 polytunnel which already had been discounted.

Unfortunately this time of year they are probably at their busiest so may be a bit more difficult.  Chat to them and see what you can get!

They are also brilliant if things are missing or you ask for things like crop bar supports etc - they generally send them out for free or just ask for Postage & Packing if they are extras.

Good luck!

Yes, they do. I kept an eye on their website for about a year before we were in a position to buy, I seem to remember the price went up about now last year, and then the next discount went on about end of July/August, which is when I ordered our tunnel.

BTW , we're really chuffed with it.  :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

I bought a poly from first tunnels in January and got 10% off if you ordered before Jan 4th. The only problem with ebay is you need to ask lots of questions. things like, how old is the cover, will they be taking it down, anchor plates to secure it in the ground etc  make sure you know exactly what you`re getting cos its not easy to get replacement bits.

I was fortunate enough to be given mine, when my mate got fed up with looking at it, and decided to have a poolhouse built instead.
