if you don't find one did you know ASDA do them now? in the giant walmart ones.

selina- 06-10-2008
Do they?

I haven't had a chance to check out asda prices but ours came from surrey pet supplies, cheapest at the time.

fraggle- 06-10-2008
they do in the one in Manchester, two whole rows of pet stuff including fabric and metal crates, even sloped ones for the boot.

Grrrr - trip to manchester on the cards then rolleyes.gif Have phoned every walmart supercentre within 40mile radious - none have them sad.gif

Have managed to get one from a very kind ST'er - still need another so guess i'll be heading that way.

fraggle- 06-11-2008
can pick one/ several up for you Kelly and get it as far as Liverpool if that helps?

and if you're coming to Manchester during the week, we're doing lunch!!!!!!!!

selina- 06-11-2008
My Asda don't do them either, any idea on sizes available and prices. smile.gif

Maisy's Mum- 06-11-2008
I'll have a look in Asda Queensferry tomorrow, Kelly, but I don't recall seeing much pet stuff in there even though it's one of the big Walmart ones.

Worth a try!

Canine Kelly- 06-11-2008
I phoned Queensfeery earlier this eve - they said they don't have them - still, a girl can look can't she ph34r.gif Thanks Deb

Jen, as per Selina's post - any ideas on sizes/prices????? Also, when you coming back to 'the pool'?????? Not sure if can do a mid week trip during the day to Manc land unsure.gif Although have got a week off in a few weeks so . . . . . .

angell- 06-11-2008
You all have Walmart??? ohmy.gif ohmy.gif ohmy.gif

I didn't know that ???? Learn somethin new everyday. Is Asda like Walmart?

I purchased the boy's hard crates there, but I need one of those canvas crates too. I hate to order out of a catalog.

I will scurry off to our 24 hour supercenter tonight after work !!! I hadn't even looked there for one.

fraggle- 06-11-2008
Working in Harrogate tomorrow but will pop in Friday and get some sizes and prices.

Not sure when I'm over next but heading down sarf next week and meeting up with them then, if these things fold flat (I assume they do) I can hand it over to them then. Oh and if you decide you want to go yourself Kelly, I think its own of those 24 hour ones!


And Angell - our supermarkets are tny compared to yours but ASDA is one of the bigger ones and recently Walmart bought them out. They seem to have rebranded some of the bigger ones as "Asda Walmart" and increased their range a lot, but they'll never be the size of your Walmarts!

Same here, if we stopped off on the way home it was horus before we could round everyone up again to go home!

Sad commentary:

People shop one side of the store and come back the next day to shop the other side of the store because they can't walk that far? Now our Walmarts aren't THAT big!! We are a country of lumps!!

I'm dissappointed. The largest one they have in our store is 20x20x28" My guys are too big for that sad.gif I will drive 20 miles north to the next one and see what they have.

Very interesting about your Asdas.

Have you seen a Sam's Club store? It is for buying bulk and for businesses. They are enormous and have darn near everything.

I still like Aldi's. You can get some European food treats now and then for bargain prices.

fraggle- 06-13-2008
and its only for the love of ST I find myself in ASDA at 7:20am on a Friday morning!

medium - 24 / 17 / 17 3 in stock £29.95
large - 28 / 21 / 21 2 in stock £34.95


and a solid sloping one 37 / 25 / 27 £ 69.95
