Just been looking at Wickes, and it is £3.50 a bag if buying 5 or more, and you get a 10% discount if you get a trade account !

I buy Wickes sand as it is a nice white KD sand which looks best in my opinion, and it also seems to be the cheapest around!

I used to use Wickes up til about a fortnight ago.  The price has dropped but so has the quality.  The sand looks like puke. Ive moved over go Jewsons,  I love the colour of their sand

I have a trade account, and that quoted figure was supposed to be discounted lol, but good idea about complaining though.
