B&Q Diy Supercentre

This is a very large B & Q store in the Pompey Centre shopping area. It has a big car park and is free to park for up to 2 hours.
The store has a garden centre as well as a wide range of furniture, soft furnishings and lighting and pretty much everything you need to do your DIY!
The store is good value and does its own range of products as well as branded ones.
The staff are very helpful and knowledgeable (one was only too happy to carry my purchase to the checkout as I couldn’t manage it), although some of the staff on the checkouts could learn better manners!

My top tip for this B&Q is to avoid going there whenever Portsmouth FC are playing at home as this place is right next door and those who travel by car know it. To be fair they limit the time so this should not be a problem but even so the traffic to get out can be a nightmare.
This is a huge superstore where you can find everything you expect from a B&Q. They also have a garden centre and they usually have a good number of plants on offer at a greatly reduced price — for instance we recently bought some flowers for our front garden for winter — The pansys were full price at £3.99 but we also picked up a few dead trays for 50p (24 plants) — now these are planted some are still flowering.
There’s not a great deal in the same location so if you come don’t expect to be on a retail park with other places to visit.
