Cheap shed!!!

[lynda66]

yeah, i figured that much (weird though, as it was on the site for about £160 (though can't find it now) and argos for £170 they own argos) and the fact that the bigger 7x5 one is on sale at £163? http://www.homebase.co.uk/webapp/wcs...ening|10308073

i haven't had anything yet

and the fact that maisie has had her order processed is somewhat annoying, maybe we should mention that lol

[maisiehumby]

Say nothing please!! Still have no idea if I'll get the shed or not and haven't heard anything. There's every chance they'll cancel my order too I should think.

It did seem too good to be true but it was worth a try.

[lynda66]

yeah, but they have told you your order has processed so i'd say they can't cancel after that ..... oh well, we'll have to wait and see ..... guess i might need those shed plans after all lol

Lowestoft B&Q had a 6 x 4 shed today for £60 (damaged, I don't know how terminal the damage was).

[lynda66]

did anyone get their shed? i didn't oh well better luck next time.

[maisiehumby]

I haven't heard anything and am keeping my head down. However, it seems that most people have had a phone call or email cancelling the order and offering a £10 voucher as compensation, so worth asking for that if it wasn't mentioned to you. Apparently thousands of the 'cheap' sheds have been ordered. What a blunder....!!!

[lynda66]

yeah they said they are sending me a voucher, and i can have 20% off the real price if i want ..... i rang them after a week of hearing nothing, as i could do with the cash if i'm not getting my shed, don't think they will refund till they have spoken to you.

[maisiehumby]

Cheap shed!!!

Yes, I'm getting a bit bored with the whole thing really. I could use the voucher for lots of things, so I think I'll ring them. No point in them having my money for too long!

Sorry folks

[lynda66]

fingers crossed yours slipped through before they noticed

[maisiehumby]

In the post today came a letter of apology and a £10 voucher....Shame, but there again I'm quite happy with ten pounds to play with. I was eyeing a nice bucket thing on wheels at Homebase a while back (for weeding) but couldn't justify the expense. Might well treat myself now!

Hey ho.

[lynda66]

damn, i was hoping at least one of us would get it, oh well a tenner is better than nowt ...... now all i have to do is find a homebase .... we haven't got one round here ..... wish it was an ikea voucher lol (that's just round the corner)

[Hans Mum]

bad luck not getting the shed but a tenners better than a poke in the eye

I got my voucher for a tenner yesterday, and already got a 10% off voucher valid every Tuesday till 30th September. Just hope that the Homebase here has a decent garden centre bit (never really looked!) and I can get a few onion sets etc. At least they'll be free

[lynda66]

*is sulking cos i can't spend mine

[MaureenHall]

Awwwwwwwwwwww poor you As Argos & Homebase are all the same company, can you not spend it at Argos? Or buy something online? Or sell it on Ebay?
