Winter fuel from Bookers

Post by kwazulu »

afternoon all!

Does anyone know if Bookers stocks the blue bag charcoal all year round? or does it disappear along with the warmth of the sun during the winter?

thanks.

I'm fairly sure they have it all year round. It is sold to restaurants & take-aways.

Has anyone noticed that the price has gone up? I'm sure it used to be 8.99 a bag, and last bag I got was 9.99 - unless my mind is playing tricks on me.

But VAT on charcoal should only be 5% so not sure why they're charging you £11.99 per bag
