As fans, I don’t need to tell you ( but I will) that B&Q are owned by Kingfisher who also own Screwfix.
This shouldn’t affect your enjoyment of visiting B&Q but might add a certain piquancy if you didn’t already know. |

"It's a rip off nearly 10 quid for a pack of screws bought identical else where for less than 2 pound
We are talking about the hardware store or some abbreviation I m not familiar with "
Screw fix is cheaper... but less visually pleasing. Plus they don’t have free wallpaper samples |

I do like Screwfix, but mainly because of the name
We had a proper old fashioned hardware shop near our old house, but I couldn't wheelchair around it because there was too much stuff in the aisles. I sat at the door and asked the dude to bring me things |

"Yes B&Q is over priced, I prefer Wickes but they often don't have the same range of goods"
