I just bought one and a few other things to get to £45. If this is your first order you can also use the voucher code CAT09 to get 15% off.

Wtf? A quick google shows that these are retailing for 125 quid?
So................. i took the advice of some peeps above, bought 3 to get free delivery, and entered the discount code to save 15%! Just under 51 quid for 3 of them delivered? Cant be right can it? Guess i'll find out if/when they turn up

Someone has gone back to work this morning after the weekend to an almighty rollicking at the Wickes head office then!
Lets see if they arrive – thanks sunnysideup for originally posting this up.

I seen this over at HotDeals, mine says its been released for dispatch, not holding my breath though.

Its missing a 1 off the start of the price, can't see Wickes losing 000s just because of a misprint.

From wickes website

Pricing
The prices displayed on the Wickes website are largely the same as the Wickes in-store prices, however we may offer different prices for products purchased from the website. These prices may be higher or lower than in our stores.

All prices are inclusive of VAT where appropriate. The Wickes VAT number is 408 5567 37.

Our site contains a large number of products, and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products listed may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the product to you. If a product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will at our discretion either contact you for instructions before dispatching the product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.

All prices are subject to change without prior notice.

We are under no obligation to provide the product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you an order confirmation e-mail.

The difference between a winner and a loser is that winners take their chances - even if some don't come off ...........

Oh. I shall expect one as well then. Mine was hidden amongst a bunch of other products as well so I'm hoping they will miss it!

term: " We are under no obligation to provide the products to you at the
incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you an order
confirmation e-mail."

As a result of this, your order will be cancelled and refunded, you will
receive an automated email to confirm this.

Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused on this
occasion
