Screwfix vs B&Q
In my locale, they are less than 400yds apart. Once upon a time, Screwfix were cheaper than B&Q but not it seems the other way around.
The only advantage of going to Screwfix is that the car park is easier to get in and out of.
Then there is the thrust by B&Q to get the trade customers. So we see that the 'trade' (Cough-cough) price is less than use mere average punters have to pay.
Just show them pretty well any business card and you get the trade price.
Why can't they have one price for everyone?
