    Seems strange that all stores are operating in different stages, hoping they will bring in the Spring bulbs next week - after some early daffs for sure. Perhaps the kids going back this week will clear an aisle? Lots online KFF if you wish to order in, I may do the same but always like to pick the healthiest looking pack.

      Seeds half price in my local but 3 for 2 still showing.. told them either take it down asap or honour it :biggrin:

      Bulbs going by colour in my store too, picked up 3 nice double narcissus @KFF replete, rip van winkle and tahiti. I WILL have a collection like yours one day! ;)

      Also 1kg of white and purple tulips are £4, look very pretty do hope they turn out as nice! Also bought nectaroscordum and fritillaria again.. slugs won't have them this time :paladin:

        Email Wilko CS complaining you didn't get the 3 for 2 as signage displayed instore, and including name and address at bottom, 50:50 chance you'll get a £5 gift card sent to you.

          I complained not too long ago about some bare root stuff and their raspberry twigs, sent me to a store to pick up a gift card worth £14. They might think I'm a serial moaner.. which I am.

            They are legally obliged to honour that offer if it was on display.

            My local store reduced most of their fertilisers to half price this week. Their own brand tomato food disappeared off the shelves first followed by the granulated feed. I stocked up for next year. I've also bought 7kg of chicken manure pellets in a huge tub for £2.50

              I know.. but I couldn't be bothered to argue.

              They don't do those big tubs of chickpoo in the 2 stores I go to :(

              @pamsdish is it true "the new" Neath town store has closed? They had a wicked click and collect parking spot right by the back doors.

                I haven`t been round for some months, used to love the old store on the corner,walk up the town and round the corner back to morries car park. Now it`s a trek, I will make it a point to find out, but if many folk feel like me it was a bad move on wilkos part.

                  Off to my local Wilko later on today.

                  In the store I went to the other day the metal thermometers where still £8, everywhere else they're reduced to £1.

                  Wonder when the weather stations will be 75% off?


                  Is there another address you can use with a new email?

                      No reduced seeds at my local Wilko, just the same old 3 for 2 multisave.

                      But mycorrhizal fungi is half price, saved myself £8.

                      Bamboo canes half price, seen this in 2 stores.

                      They also had these feeds reduced to same prices found by others:

                            Thanks @KFF was quite chuffed when I seen them there. The Tahiti looks a beaut too.

                              Went back to that store today and all the half price seed notices have dissapeared! Saw yesterday that 3 for 2 seeds online is no longer working (in conjunction with half price reduction) so that glitch may not appear instore.

                              But bamboo canes were 75% off and red 7L watercans were reduced to 90p (green ones were £1.25 :scratch:).
