Default Wellies

Where can I buy some in June (by Tuesday evening too)? I need a pair of cheap wellington boots for Glastonbury and Im struggling. I had seen them in Tesco, but theyre a Winter-only line.....

Any constructive help appreciated.

Dave, Im looking for £3:99 wellies as opposed to Amazons £23:99 wellies..... Due to my long hours at work Im not going to be able to visit most normal retailers (nor accept deliveries). Id overlooked B&Q though and I can get there before 8pm.

£11,98 for a pair of pink rubbers - thought you could get a pack of 3 for less

Try Wilkinson's Simon. They may have some left, pm me your size and phone number, I'll ask lisa to get you a pair if they have any left. She works there and I could city link them to you if you can't get any local.

If anyone wants proper wellies (that farmers use) get Dickies Landmasters - About £25 and a LOT better than Hunters!

Argylls are a cheaper and more durable version of Hunters (made by the same people) if you MUST have a label!

Keeping them on my feet was a much bigger problem than buying the damned things!

Would have hated to be at this years without any wellies. Had waterproof trousers as well to form a mud proof layer

Wear thicker socks if they keep falling off
