Title: poundland cloches
Post by: tomatoada on February 28, 2005, 07:50:40
Can anyone tell me where to get cloches at Poundland in south Birmingham?  I have some local shops, and Reddich but they have never heard of them.  The shops do not appear in the telephone directory.  I can get to Smethwickand Bromsgrove.  Thanks.

 ;D Got mine from Poundland Merry Hill Shopping Centre Brierly Hill, ;) I live south Birmingham, they had loads...http://www.merryhill.co.uk/home.html

P.S. I noticed someone selling poundland cloches on e-bay they had reached over £3 when I last looked. There are some budding entrepreneur's on that site. ;D ;D ;D

George Bush, when having a moan about the French and their socialist tendencies and agricultural and cultural protectionism once famously said "The trouble with the French is, they don't have a word for "entrepeneur"!!!

Maybe if you live miles from stores such as Poundland they may be worth it. However, thankgoodness for the internet to bring these things to our notice.

If you can get to a Lidl, they have larger cloches available from this Thursday.  More expensive, but possibly better quality?  The Poundland ones are okay, but not particularly sturdy...

Roy :)

Came and had a look  on the English
E bay....today at the Gardening Section.

Its seems quite Good Roy I was More interested
in Plants/Seeds Section. But dont have that much
Experience with your Side.....Some good Prices
Some Overpriced I thought.
With these things I think you have to set
your own Limit...I have 5 or 10.00 Pounds an d thats my Limit.

A good Example was the Rhubarb asking 15.00
Dont know if thats good or Bad Roy ???

I have only bought eight items off e-bay, five were reasonable bargains
the other three were rubbish, I doubt if I will use them again. ;)

With regard to plant purchases I'd much rather go out to a Garden Centre
to look and choose, good excuse for a day trip out when the weathers fine. ;D

I have been very happy with my few Ebay purchases.  The first was a cake tin from the US with a cartoon character design, for a 4 year old, the second was my wedding veil (£4!) and the third was an upright polycarbonate cold frame which is a product just appearing (in a small size) in the T&M catalogue, rrp £70 which I got a factory second of the larger version of for £26.  They don't seem to have any in the auctions at the moment, so I can't give you a URL but I am very pleased, even after repairing the glazing gaps which are the reason for it being a second.  A tube of clear silicone sealant solved it easily enough.
