Still waiting for tile forums discounts tg?

And to think we went green!
It's all a bit 'airey' nothing definite - I went in and was offered the same discount as Tom or was it Dick and when I mentioned the forum it might as well have been Harry.

Sorry for the late reply to this

I spoke to the MD today and the discounts should be sorted very very soon. When they are, the prices will be good

The Wright Tiler, have you tried the Mapestik D1? That is cheaper and a good standard adhesive. Sorry to hear of your bad experience, I will pass it on to the MD

I very much agree with this statement, the manager shouldn't pick and choose what prices he matches, but speaking as a staff member myself, it is difficult to match prices that are lower than what we are paying, not that that would stop me doing it :lol:

my local seems to be a decent enough shop with decent staff,,good quality tiles and also good adhesives etc,,only issue and the reason i dont use them at all anymore is the way its setup ..if i want to buy mats every time i go in the computer has to be manully changed to price match prices,,also most tiles need minimum 1 weeks notice to order in,,as i said its not the staffs fault(i dont think) just seems to be the setup.
