Must be getting time to put Christmas decorations on shelves if Wilkinson's are selling things of half price...... ;D ;D ;D
I love those bargains at Wilkies, got myself a three tiered tidy stand for pot plants the other week, it was knocked down to £3.50~and very useful it is too :)

5 metres and although I haven't yet opened the package they appear quite good quality and robust with tubular plastic supports pegs and end caps :o ;D
The cheap cloche tunnel thing from lidls didn't survive the wind here!
I was in Wilkos this morning and they were reducing lots of the gardening items to half price so it might be worth keeping an eye open for bargains.
I think i drove the shop assistant mad as i was hovering over her while she applied her half price stickers ;D
Got myself a cast iron plant stand with castors on it to put under one of my big plants so that i can move it around easily, and of course it was half price too :)
Looks like a trip to town tomorrow for me and hubby then. ;D
Ive got my eye on some big pots Maz.
They are plastic but have that terracotta look, they are £14.99 at the moment so they will be much more tempting to buy once the half price sticker is stuck onto it, its just catching them at the right moment isnt it? :)
I always keep an eye on the Aldi & Lidl websites for their latest bargains, sad really I s'pose :(
These half price offers just show how much mark-up there is on gardening stuff, eh?
I went to Wilkos yesterday and the only thing in the sale was a few manky plants. :(
So Roy you are getting the blame for the 2 new pairs of sandals I HAD to buy. Well a girl cant go home empty handed from town, it wouldnt do her street cred any good at all! ::) 8)

;D Sorry for repeating myself but the bags of seed compost I bought last year were retailing at 95p were sold end of season at 10p each :o at Asda, I filled my trolley to the brim with them and used the last bag a week ago, hope I can get some more at that price ;D

OOOOOhhhh doc steve, does that mean you can wrap one up and stick it in the post for me ;) ;D
No price is better than half price :D
erm depends on what yer want think a big pot maybe a bit big for poor old postman ::) ;D
So, my full on cheek failed me then ;D ;D :D
sorry looks like you're out of luck we finished our order for this year and they all went to the stores ;) nice try though yer dont get if you dont ask ;D
Got two of the £2.50 cloches today at Wilkinsons - had already bought two a few weeks ago at the original price. I think they are a real bargain. They have also solved the messy problem of having netting held up by bamboo sticks, with pots over, that I used to keep tripping over, when I wanted something protected. So easy now to just have netting over the cloches and to lift them up when I need to weed. They look so neat and tidy too. Good old Wilkinsons. :) busy_lizzie
I went to another Wilko today and there wasnt any sale stuff there either. >:(
Wots goin' on? >:(
I demand my bargains!!!!!
I nipped in yesterday Maz, and although they have practically sold out since the sale started on Saturday, there were still a few things i had my eye on, including one of those three tiered iron basket stand that i bought the other week reduced to five pounds :o
I didnt buy it though as they cost a fortune to plant up and its a bit too late now anyway.
So i settled on a lovely trellis for a couple of quid and a garden lamp that wasnt reduced but a good price all the same.
I do love Wilkies i do ;D ;D
;D I will be there tomorrow first thing. It is my mostest fv shop well with Aldi and Lidl too. You just can't go wrong can you. Hope all you guys leave me something.
