Bargain Wilko's Half Price Sale

Been in our store today, nothing off Johnson's World Botanics (I think that's what they're called) are 50p a pack and Wilko's own 75% off. Other items such as canes, seed trays, basically whatever is left from spring/summer stock is 75% off.

However they also have some other gardening stuff elsewhere in the shop which is all full price as its stuff that can be continued to be used throughout the winter, strangely the thermometers that I got the other week with something like 80% off are now full price again!!

There were also some new forks and spades near the door which were fresh stock and full price

 

Still no bulbs in my nearest so went over to the High Wycombe store, 15p phacelia campanularia seeds & 25p echium blue bedder, all seeds 75% off! Managed to obtain a few packs of crocus & hyacinths for in door flowering.

 

Nothing left other than what I assumed was going to stay full price, but as I was passing (on our way to get some 25% off cheese at Iceland) had a quick look and found they had reduced the 39L flexi tubs to £1.25 each so bought last 4. Googling indicates they were £5 full price Wilko Flexi Tub Large 39L A few minutes with a flat wood bit and they make great tubs for spuds.

 

Anybody found reduced Spring Bulbs yet?

They're usually being reduced around this time of year, and I was rather relying upon buying a load at approx. 20p/pack to replace/thicken up my severely depleted stock of bulbs in my front garden display.

But on checking my local store yesterday there were only about 12 packs left, and all still at full price.

 

Everything got took off in our store about 3 weeks ago still at full price. Presumably they went to another store. We haven't had a gardening sale now for the last 2 years.

 

I do hope they've not got their stock levels matching demand this year, as I rather rely upon buying numerous packs every 4 years @ 20 - 30p/pack to replenish my display

 

My local B&M were selling off bulbs at half price last week

 

Popped in my Wilkos today, I could see the spring bulbs on portable shelving at the bottom of the now defunct escalator, , I was very disappointed to find them all full price.

 

Just like my local store.

 

Still full price here yesterday too.

We have 2 Wilkinson branches here and they are both difficult to get to from where we live.
