Isn't that how B&Q works anyway?


Nope. B&Q work on the computer telling them that they have run or are
running out of an item. My local one had two 22mm/10mm 4-way manifolds in
their plumbing section, but they were no use as the nuts and olives were
missing - 15 months later they still had the same two as they'd never
ordered any more as the computer insisted that they had two on the shelves
and the droids couldn't see any problem (despite me pointing it out on at
least two occasions!)
