Cubes are dissappearing...

Hey guys just thought I'd check. So far My local K-Mart, Bunnings AND Big W's have all stopped stocking grids, i know Queensland Big W's have also stopped. is there anywhere else that isn't stocking them anymore?

I thought it would be useful just to see if its only my little country town or all over Aus.

Thanks
Emma

Re: Cubes are dissappearing...

I know the Reject Shop has grids. A pack big enough to make an uncovered 2x4 is $30.

I know Kmart and Target don't have them. My local Big W still has 8 packs on the shelf, and I haven't checked Bunnings yet. I don't know what I'm going to do in a year when I build a C&C.

Re: Cubes are dissappearing...

The Reject Shop at Macquarie Centre (North Ryde) sells them. 6 Cubes for $30. Bunnings at Thornleigh sells Grids, 1 Cube for $8.45 (round about) - that's where I got mine !

Re: Cubes are dissappearing...

I bought 2 packs at Big W (Melbourne suburb) the other day but they only had 4 packs on the shelf. These only cost about $14 for 16 panels and are the best value around. Better buy up just in case they disappear.

No I can't find much here either Em. I am going to go on a big search mission in a couple of weeks though, as I am planning a new setup(again)

Re: Cubes are dissappearing...

Just adding I also got my grids at The Reject Shop. I bought a few boxes just in case they stopped stocking them as well.

Re: Cubes are dissappearing...

FYI ... I also purchased a pack of grids today from the Reject Shop. Interestingly they are made in China but the packaging is pre-printed with the price and Reject Shop logo. So maybe they will be a permanent line, across all stores. The pack is $30 and contains 23 grids and 24 connectors. Grids are black or white, the connectors I got in the white pack were a light grey.

Re: Cubes are dissappearing...

Sigh, ok now I really hate living in the country. The closest reject shop is over an hour away, and its TINY. I cannot wait till I graduate and move out of here, this place is sooo far away from everything.

Yesterday i tried finding cubes in US like crazy the whole day but could not find in any - costco, kmart, sams club, walmart, target and menards. Finally managed to find one in bed bath and beyond but not a good deal like costco. i wonder why all of them stopped carrying them? any ideas? really would appreciate if u can let me know a place to find these.

Re: Cubes are dissappearing...

The Reject shop at Warrawong, NSW, (near Wollongong), has some cubes for anyone interested.

I went and bought 3 boxes on Tuesday. They were located on a top shelf, I really had to go searching for them.
