well this shop had got to win the award for pet shop of the wheek :))
not only have they piggie themed stationery but they have improved their pet range and have all sorts of new healthy treats,toys and things like vitamins,medicine etc,well worth a look in.
 
I've been into Wilkos again today looking for the guinea pig stationery - still nothing :(

I did notice their extended pet shop range though - big chubes for £1.50 and loads of other good stuff!
 
There is one minutes from where I work so really convenient.
They do have some nice stuff for piggies in there so they get more treats than ever now :(|)
Planning on going to Jolley's this week too for a mooch so know I'll be treading on dangerous ground ;)
 
Ooh after seeing this thread I popped to my local store to have a look and got these...

And finally a chew cube £1.50
:) my piggies and buns approve of wilco toys
 
Wilkinsons have done really well with their pet section. Their bales of compressed hay aren't bad at all and the bags of oat hay they sell are a big hit with my pigs, although I was a teeny bit disappointed when they put the price up but I'm sure I can stretch to the extra 20p ;)
 
Forgot to say I get the Willow sticks from there too :) although last time I got them at the animal rehoming place near me as they were only £1 there!
 
Mine used to to toss those willow sticks around lol! :)) Does it say on the labels whether the carrots or chube have any colourants in them do you know?
 
I bought that exact same chew cube from pah for double the price! I know where ill be popping to tomorrow! :)
 
I visited our local wilkinsons on saturday for the stationary, I dont know if it is the same in every store but ours has 2 departments, one for the grown-up stuff and one for the younger person. The piggie stuff was in the bit for the younger person. It might be worth asking rather than just looking.
 
wow awesome! thanks for the pics lilpetchannel too, the chew chube is a great price at £1.50, i normally pay double in my usual place!

I'm sooo going in there after work on friday lol! cant wait! :))
 
didn't see any stationary. got the girls a lovely fruit mix and a bag of dandelion stuff tho
 
I was recently admiring all those things too, I wanted to get some but the girls outside, Oliver and Robin all just turn their noses up at that sort of stuff, the snobs! :p

Might get more tomorrow for the ones who do like them... :)

And not to be a downer but that stationary set made me laugh for all of 2 seconds when I spotted them at first, then had a closer look and they're actually quite repulsive! I don't like them :(
 
Must have a look at this stationary, Wilkos is great for choice and value:)
 
Wilkinsons is something I have SO missed since moving to Scotland. Well, we have a few, but none very close to Edinburgh :(

But, we're off to visit the inlaws in Carlisle tomorrow and they have a huge one there. Am sure we'll fill the boot with goodies.
 
I went to wilkinsons today rolleyes
I got the 'party girl' notebook which has a guinea pig in a cocktail glass on the front :) going to take it to uni with me because I'm cool!
Also got a couple toys for the piggies :))
 
I also went in today and was taken back by their new stock, it was nice to see some nice toys that the pigs & rabbits like! :))
 
Oh I LOVE Wilkos
I am verrrry lucky to live in Worksop where the wilkinsons HQ is based and all items are dispatched from, My neighbour works for them and she gets to have all the seconds for free or pennies ( litterally pennies)
I got chew tubes for 1p each as colours ontop had mingled together and they could not sell them, I also get lots of things with damaged packaging from there for my piggy.
They are all perfect just either cosmetic or packaging defects :)
 
Where are Wilkinsons in North Yorkshire? I thought they were just an on-line shop and can't find their store locator :^-

We wants some new toys :))
