Wickes are selling 4 bags of multi purpose compost for £10.00. Not a bad deal.

I used them last year and found them very good. Will have to go and get some more.

Last week I picked up 450 litres of bagged compost for £10 from a local nursery, evidently they'd bought up bankrupt stock. Could do with more bargains like that.

I got some bags but had to get friend to put them on plot, toooo heavy but good for topping up raised beds!

My local independant garden centre pretty much always sells 75ltr bags of Erin compost at 2 for £5. Picked up four at the weekend.
