Default B&Q Price Promise - Not.

Bill coughed up some electrons that declared:

As B&Q didn't have quite enough sheets anyway, I gave up. The difference
wasn't huge anyway, but all their price promise has achieved is to make
me more wary of their prices. I went elsewhere for the fittings, bolts,
screws, washers I needed.


Which is all very odd, because I go to Parkers Building Supplies
(Sussex/Kent local firm) and they match B&Q prices on ton bags and sheet
materials quite happily, despite commention that said prices are "quite
cheap". I even take printouts of B&Q's website and never even had to show
one.

Talking of which, Currys have been quite happy to price match based on
website printouts before.
