WICKES BESPOKE KITCHENS AND BATHROOMS - They're not as bad as you wished they were!
"My local store has a bit of a rough appearance and has been around for as long as I can remember, so I thought I knew it well.
The car park is coated with a layer of cement and sand dust, a result of people accidentally splitting bags as they load them into their vans and cars.
Abandoned flat-bed trolleys are scattered across the car park, adding to the disorder."
HOWDENS KITCHENS REVIEW FOR INDEPENDENT KITCHEN RETAILERS
I ask about prices and she says she couldn't give me any, I point at one of the displays and ask if that one was cheaper than the other one, she said she couldn't tell me as I was not an account holder.
She said if I got my installer to come in she would give prices to them, I said 'I don't have an installer, can you suggest one' to which she said 'no but there were some business cards from fitters near the trade counter'.

Showroom Visit August 2024: My local store is, like most of Wrens stores, set on a busy out of town retail park, the front of this particular store is neat if a little uninviting from the outside but that’s possibly down to this retail park requiring modernising.
In the first showroom, out of courtesy I went over and asked if I could take some photos of the displays to which they had no problem, they did ask if I needed any help and I said I was OK. I acted as a mystery shopper just starting out to get ideas for a new bathroom.
