Anybody taken advantage of this great offer?

A couple of weeks ago I bought some leavington compost, it was on sale for the same price as last year, three bags for £12.
Couldn't help thinking that I had got a bit stronger than I was last year, the bags went in the car so easily.


Anyway, I looked at last years bag, guess what?
There wasn't as much in this years bags, as last years.


56 litres compared with 75 last year.
Now my maths aren't that good these days, but I make that a 34% increase in price from last year.
Seems diabolical to me.

Dont think my wage rise was quite that big this year.

 

Everything is the same Pete. My local small supermarket chain carries bog standard potting compost etc. Last year it was buy 3 bags for £8, this year 3 bags for £10. Last year bag = 80 litres This year bag= 75 litres.

 

:DCant help wondering how big the leavington bags will be in two years time.
About the size of a tea bag, I guess.:D

 

I think its taking more than the "biscuit" Nathan.:D

 

Well at least the war is over. And now they are taking the peace.

 

:D:DSomething like that John.:D

You are so polite at times, .................:D

 

Which war is that Sarranceniac or need I ask.

 

I found that the bags were smaller with nearly all the compost suppliers, I went to Wickes you can get 4x75ltr bags of compost for £10 it's quite good compost there was actually some discount on this as I got 20 bags, their bark chips are reasonable as well.

 

Get mine from gardening club lovely compost £3.20 80 litres
