        If you go looking for them - they are in mauvey/lilac boxes and they were alongside others in green boxes.

        The prices on the racks are NOT the sale price
        so, if you see a mauvey box, ask to have it scanned.
        You may be in for a pleasant surprise

        There were 4 frames but only one glazing pack at my local B&Q. Since I had planned to use the frames as fruit cages, the glazing was not necessary - but since it was there, I bought it just in case

          Thank you so much for the heads up. I have a greenhouse! There are still quite a few in the New Malden one, if anyone is close by. The prices are marked on the frames, but not on the glazing packs where I am. And they also have 6x6 greenhouses for v low prices.

            None in my local store, BUT I am in possession of a BQ 6 x 4 aluminium base and frame reduced from £166 then £66 today £30. Now all I have to do is get some sort of glazing pack for it. None in BQ, any ideas gratefully received. Don't know if they all fit each other or what. Help

              You should be able to buy some 4mm polycarb sheets (2ft wide) then just cut them with scissors to the sizes you need (angled pieces front & rear).

                  There were quite a few in my one - would they ship them between stores? Usually they are quite good about that sort of thing.

                      I bartered and got my frame for 15 (box all damaged - contents fine)

                        Hmmm, no cheap greenhouses in skegness or boston B & Q's, though they obviously knew about it because in both stores when I asked them to do a price check, they asked if it was for a greenhouse.

                          All the greenhouses mentioned above have sold through in both Aberdeen stores.

                          I did however get a 6x6 greenhouse base and horticultural glass for 155 quid, because of damaged packaging.

                          I got my frame for 50 quid.

                          Now to get a dryish day with no high winds to put it up. I bought extra clips to help deal with our higher than the rest of UK winds up here.

                            Haven't had chance to get to Solihull. My OH asked me the daft question where are you planning to put it and do you really need one.
                            Doh yes of course I do. Can never have enough greenhouse space. Might sneak over tomorrow

                              Just a word of warning to those of you who have managed to track down the elusive GHs!
                              Wear gloves when handling the base as the edges are like bloody razor blades - literally. Keep the sticky plasters handy at all times

                                Cheers VC. Will bring home the gloves from work. Someone gave them to us for wearing when using the mentally sharp knives. Never been worn...
                                When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it.
                                If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.
