    600mm High wire mesh x 10m long reduced to £1.25 (was £6)
    900mm Ditto reduced to £3 (was £8)
    Ideal for keeping Rabbits out, Hens and Ducks in or fruit cages, the 600mm high can be stacked and laced together for a decent height plus plenty to bury.

    2 x 4m Plastic crop/pond mesh reduced to 75p, ideal for fruit bushes, strawberries, keeping cabbage whites out. @JWK is that what you need for the fruit bushes at your plot?

    Spent over £30 on above plus some 25p packs of cell tray inserts. Every day they seem to be reducing more and more stuff.

      I got a rose arch for £1.50, down from £6. It came up as £5 @ the till, so I queried it but they changed the shelf edge to £5 after I'd bought mine. :-)

        3-pack of heavy duty seed trays 60p
        5-pack of half size seed trays 35p
        2-pack of wigwam tops 25p

        Watch out for misplaced Johnson's Seeds that aren't reduced. I got overcharged but decided I couldn't be bothered to argue. And they are nice.

        My local Wilkos only has a 75% off sign, but they also come through at 3 for 2. Three packets of 40p seeds is a cheap way to check whether they go through at 20p or 30p before buying expensive seeds.


        !.5 Kg Sulphate of Potash reduced to £1
        1.5 & 2m polythene and mesh tunnels reduced to £1

        Cuprinol timber treatment reduced from £3.20 to £1.60:

                Picked up some seeds from Wilkos at 32p and 25p and the 3 for 2 was still working. I also got a 35cm wire hanging basket for 35p and a 30cm hanging basket liner for 25p. There were some other gardening bits on the reduced shelf in my local but I didn't think they were much of a bargain.

                  Mine have removed the 75% off banner from the top of the seeds and the seed tray pot inserts were back up to £1 for a 3-pack. On the good side I bought some large peat pots, packs priced at 20p but went through at 1p!

                  My local Wilko have gone even further than that, they've removed all the seed displays, saw the last piece of display racking being pushed into the storeroom as I arrived as I had some time to kill in town and was going to do various shops of multiples of 3 same price seeds, so think I'll play somewhere else tomorrow.

                    Fibre pots were 20p/pack here, but fleece still full price.

                    Polythene and fleece tunnels £1 each here.


                    Don't know what else I actually need (until I find it), apart from some really cheap tomato feed, growmore, bb&f, and perhaps dirt cheap gro sure seed compost (I've used most of thst trolley load of bags I got from Tesco for 75p each).


                    P.S. I think I hold the record for the cheapest ever Wilko mini greenhouse - left hand receipt
