I just popped in for some sandpaper and they are discontinuing a few shades. Reduced on the tin to £19.74 from £39.49 then had a sign saying 75% off marked price.
Selected colours. This was in Homebase Peterborough. Near the checkouts.

Not according to a blind test on Savvy Shoppers last week.
Experts agreed it was overpriced at £40, but agreed it beat Dulux and Crown.

no it isn't rubbish its very good paint with good coverage, but it is overpriced, I would take a colour sample and get it colour matched by Johnstones or dulux.
good price if you can get what you want

Went in just before 4 and couldn't see any left in pboro. Hopefully it's not store specific.

Worth it for a fiver definitely - I'd stock up if I had a Homebase near me :smiley: Saw it on Savvy Shoppers during the week too :smiley:

Dulux and Crown are water-based paints, F&B is oil-based, so an entirely different product really! I would NEVER buy Dulux paint, unless it was their 'professional' paint similar to trade paint...

F&B is water based. They stopped making off the shelf oil based paint a few years back.
The retail offerings from Dulux and Crown are very poor in comparison to their trade ranges.
