What is the price of a bag of B&Q logs?  

I have always thought it was well known they are crap value for money and wet ,just the same as garage forecourts .

If I was ever desperate enough to need to buy wood to burn right away and from a shop that sells it on the side, I would buy 4/2 timber and cut them up, I bet you get more heat and actual product than buying these bags of logs.

My local DIY store has 4inch by 2inch timber at 2400mm long ,I think for £2.70  ,2 or 3 lengths of this cut up would fill a few bags and be dry enough to burn = better value, but you have to spend 10mins with a saw so not for snow flakes.

No stacking.
No bark bits or small bits .
And buy shrink wrapped kindling.

When I first had my log burner put in I bought a few nets of logs (in my case from Tesco) as I didn't have anything to burn.  Never again, experience same as B&Q.  TBH though if you look at the B&Q website the customer reviews tell you the same story.  I'm not sure how they sell any, but I guess they must as there are several different types available.

A heady combination of convenience and lack of customer knowledge.
