Guest Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 You know the one....where can I get one? Few years ago nearly every shop sold them and now I can't find one anywhere (except ones from diy websites with postage that costs more than the tub itself! Or b and q who have a black one). I just want one to keep my junk modelling in! ppp Quote
Alison Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 I know the buckets you mean but they seem to have phased out/ changed design there seems to be loads of softer rubbery big buckets about with molded handles, Quote
Shiny Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 Have you got a Horse and Pony equipment supplier near you they will have one. Quote
Guest woodentop Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 hello everyone. really enjoying this site. I can remember seeing something similar in wickes I think, Quote
Guest Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) I can remember seeing something similar in wickes I think, The ones at Wickes are the same ones as mentioned previously with the plastic handles. I think they're called Tub Trugs. Edited April 17, 2009 by SP61HJ Quote
Guest Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 They are tub trugs but some of the pound shop type places/ wilkinsns do their own cheaper versions!!! Haven't seen any of the tubs with rope handles though Quote

HappyMaz Posted April 18, 2009 Posted April 18, 2009 Hi new to forum Re tubs find a CO OP food store they have them on offer for £3.49 a bargin i use mine as planters in the nursery garden kind regards Tonia Welcome to the Forum Tonia - useful info, thanks! Now that you've made your first post why not go to the 'introductions' forum and tell us a little more about yourself? Maz Quote
Lorna Posted April 18, 2009 Posted April 18, 2009 I saw some in town today- tub trugs with rope handles only in black though- outside a little independent DIY shop. Only any use to tou if you are in the Hampshire area. Quote
Guest Posted April 19, 2009 Posted April 19, 2009 Thanks everyone. I went in search of tubs yesterday and had no luck - CO-OP ones are the bendy ones with plastic handles. I will not give up on my mission though! ppp Quote

I will not give up on my mission though! ppp Hi playplayplay were the ones I linked to not the right ones??? or did the links not work? I have got one which I store different materials in and they are really useful but I have had it for years but I think the ones in my previous post are the same as you described Salm Quote
Guest Posted April 19, 2009 Posted April 19, 2009 Thank you Salm, much appreciated but one link was to american stores and the other costed quite a few pennies. ppp Quote
