    Careless Cubes in the UK?

    Hey, so ive seen some older posts on here regarding cubes in the UK, but haven't found any recent posts. I understand a lot of you fellow brits got your cubes from Argos and Homebase, however they don't appear to sell them anymore

    Does anyone know of any retailers stocking them recently? Im familiar with the online resources such as Robert May, but was hoping to find a store that i could just go into and buy them cheaply, rather than buying online. I read somewhere earlier that Asda have been known to sell them? Im going there tonight so if anyone has bought cubes from Asda could you let me know how they are labelled?


    Thanks!

    I got mine at the end of August this year from Costco where they had boxes with 10 grids and 6 mesh grids for £10.32 including vat.

    Check in the UK section (UK - Guinea Pig Cages, Care, Store, Photos of Guinea Pigs and More Forum!), there's quite a few posts there.
    The cheapest at the moment seem to be 16 panels/18 connectors for £20, on ebay (search "cube storage")

    Thanks guys. Yea ebay does seem to be the cheapest, or robert may. With regards to costco, how do you become a member? Do you have to have your own business?

    See this discussion on Money Saving Expert CostCo Membership??? - MoneySavingExpert.com Forums - I have trade membership, but it looks like the personal membership may be available to most people.

    Thanks for the ling gpeiw, it is most useful. My only concern is...I'm a university student, so I'm not sure I can even qualify for an individual membership

    I think I'll have to go and visit my local branch and see if there is any way I could join

    Having said that, I already have a wonderful cage, but I found that these grids will be perfect to rabbit proof my lounge as well.
