| Quote TV BOY="TV BOY"I for one will never set foot in that over priced place again. I know that it has a Warrington post code but no where in its posh new commercial does it say anything about the town that it is nearly in. Leigh. It actualy says its near Warrington. Talk about snobbery. All Leythers should boycott the place and fight for a garden centre in Leigh.'"
Never have the Optimist family been so annoyed
The Optimists are keen gardeners and swear by Bents, quality comes at a price we say, and Bents certainly provide quality. Granted we only buy the occasional packet of seeds, but let me tell you that the germination rates are prolific! Also Mrs. Optimist informs me that the Beckhams used to shop there.
In conclusion - On most of our visits to Bents we actually buy nothing, just peruse the merchandice pretending we're "10 bob snobs" where as in reality we actually get most of our gear from Wilkinsons in the town centre.
Wilkinsons........Now that is a place!

| We have got a garden centre in Leigh, the one just short of the Greyhound on the Lancs. OK its no Benst but the plants are very good quality and its dirt cheap. Me and the Mrs usually have a look round Bents then go here to buy and the prices are about 75% cheaper.

| Lots of negative responses here - typical of some folk on this forum !
There are quite a number of people in Leigh who depend on people going to Bents to spend money as it pays their wages! Some of them appeared in the advert too!
Life is about choices, you can choose to go and spend money in a shop or choose not to! Just because you choose not to, does that give you the right to call those who do 'snobs' ?
Wether its in Warrington, Leigh or Timbuctoo, it doesn't really matter does it?
It's like being in a playground at times with some of you lot!
.....now if some commercial manager approached them for sponsorship....

| The point of this post was. Why do Bents say that they are near to Warrington when they are just outside the border of Leigh?

| In the coffee shop there, the other day. The woman in front of me, in the queue, had two scones and two coffees on her tray. When she got to the till, she profferred a £20 note, saying, 'Sorry, I've only got a £20 note.' 'That's alright love,' said the cashier, 'just put one of the scones back!!'

Because from a marketing perspective it makes sense.
