We sell it for 30p per lb or £16 per bag in our Stores,  but I don't know how heavy the bag is.

go to a horticultural distributors or a wholesale warehouse like JTF etc, or an allotment association.

You will not get the best price in a retail outlet.

The price of all chemical fertilisers has gone up drastically over the last year or so due to increased gas prices & China's increase in export tax on urea. The wholesale price of growmore is now around £12 per 25kg sack (with bulk discounts available) from most horticultural suppliers.
