Bargain Wilko's Half Price Sale

Yep when I was in today all the halloween stuff was 75% off and autumn bulbs etc have been 3 for 2 for a couple of weeks...

 

I've just bought 14 boxes of plastic 'strawberry' netting, 3 x 2m reduced to 30p each. I sold hundred of strawberry plants earlier this year and will be doing the same next year and will give one away free with every 15 plants as an incentive for people to buy more.

There was also a big box of plastic plant clips and ties all reduced to 10p each. Spray guns of cockroach killer reduced to 30p each.

 

Went in to my Wilkos this morning,nothing reduced at all ,not even the left over bulbs ,

 

Bulbs are now buy one get one free (previously buy 2 get 1 free).

 

All bulbs now only 50p per bag/packet/box from 10 crocus bulbs right up to £6 Alium Collections.

 

I'm going off you Scrungee, only because I'm jealous. Our Wilko's doesn't sell plants of any sort.

 

Saw lots of hosepipe fittings reduced to 10p for single items and 30p for packs of three. Packs of birch plant labels 10p/pkt and a couple of dozen sprinklers all reduced to 50p each down from £7.98 - see bottom LH corner of this cached web page http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...gear+drive+sprinkler&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk Bought some packs of the labels as there's 50 labels per pkt.

 

I will give it another look, then i will give up, at least the rat/mouse killer works. Found a body today

 

I went today and all bulb packs where 50p each so i just had to grab a load

 

I forgot to mention that these odds & ends aren't on the shelves with the residual, core gardening stuff, but in a corner of the store where they put ends of lines, etc. and as I've never seen all those sprinklers before I suspect it's either the store clearing out their stockroom or being sent ends of lines from distribution depots for clearance.

Just goes to show that even after everything has apparently been sold off, it's still worth a look around if in town. When my wife worked close to a Wilkos she'd check it out every lunchtime. We've still got some tomato feed and big packs of Miracle Grow plant food from when she found them reduced to 10p each.

 

As well as bulbs and the like being sold off in our store, some gardening stuff is actually coming back in stock already; small stocks of compost, fertilisers etc...

 

Hope it was a rat Pam .........

 

Yes ,dead as the dodo, poked him /her on to shovel then into bin, good job its emptied Monday.

My neighbour asked me if it was the one I had been putting the poison down for

did offer to attempt ressucitation ? ,to ask it if it was the poison killing it.

 

Most Christmas items now half price, including artificial trees; which reminds me, my sister bought one at the beginning of last week for £25, its now £12.50!!!

Keep an eye on this stuff folks because our local store reduced Christmas items to ridiculously low prices by early January last year, we got a 6ft slimline black tree last year that had previously been on sale for £35 for 25p......yes 25p

 

Plastic Poinsettia flowers reduced from £2 to 25p. Saw a customer grabbing an armful of them exclaiming "Ooooo aren't they luverly". Declined to comment.
