OT. Rubble Sacks

Jan 09, 2008 19 Replies

I bought a pack of 20 rubble sacks from Wickes on Friday & put them in the van. Wanted one today & can't find them.



Anyone know where they are?



Under the camouflage net?

Probably under someone's floor with that lost screwdriver!

Yep, they're with my cordless drill.

You do have a side rack inside your van don't you? They'll be filed under B for bags, rubble. The bloke who did the windows had an impressively tidy van with wooden frame built in for holding everything and everything was neatly in place.

With both my heat guns and my second-best router. Oh, adn the USB lead for the camera before last.

Rubble sacks have now been bred to have a homing instinct.

If you go back to Wickes, they've probably got a shelf full of them that have found their way back. By selling the homing type it eases their stock control, eleminates the need for re-ordering and increases their profit cos they sell the same bags many times.

What you actually need is a bag reprogramming device so they stay with you and won't go back to Wickes. I can supply one at the very reasonable price of =A349.99 + delivery.

Simple innit.

If they're anything like B&Q rubble bags, they'll be no great loss.

Any excuse to mention your van and the business ;-)

Wickes probably could do with some help in that area

Are you a B&Q employee? Are you a B&Q official? Do you have any connection with Kingfisher plc? Are you in any way acting on their behalf?

Maybe SF has pasted them over the logos on the side of your van (as above. :)

No, no, no and no.

It's just that I seem to shop there a lot and remembered the Man at C&A ads from the 70s/80s.

They're dowmn the back of the sofa.

Ahh, it's not just me then. Bought a pack of them from Screwfix just before xmas & haven't seen them since.

Apparently there's a planet in a far-distant galaxy populated by various types of rubble-sack life-forms. Near the biro planet. Or so we are told by an enterprising character who, coincidentally, has a thriving business in miscellaneous rubble sacks. :-)

It's OK chaps I've found them.

Some idiot put my plumbing bits box on top of them.

Can't get the staff............

You obviously need a Rubble Sacks box.
