Slightly reduced hours to mornings, just for the “in between” weekdays. This will give our staff a little bit more well deserved time with their own families over Christmas. Thank you for your understanding.

Happy Friday everyone! 🍃

We are in for a hot weekend and only have a couple fans remaining so make sure you pop down to grab one to keep your rooms cool!

This week we have rearranged the home section and the decorating section in store, all looking very tidy and makes products a lot easier to find for our customers🤩

Also if you are doing any gardening this weekend make sure you pay us a visit for any compost, plant, flower or gardening tool needs.

Have a wonderful weekend all!🌞

Happy Thursday! 😎

After reading all of the comments about whether Fred's should go for an online option, we have decided to work on a brand new website where you will be able to view our range of products and departments, however we will not be taking orders on there at this current stage, as we feel as though our customers enjoy coming into store much more.

With this said, we are promoting our phone and delivery service, as we did during covid, where you will be able to ring the shop phone line & place an order for delivery (this is for orders over £15.00) and the delivery date will be confirmed by phone call depending on availability.

We are promoting this as many of our customers mentioned that an alternative option as well as shopping in store would be appreciated, especially for anyone who is unable to pay us a visit in store.🤩

Have a lovely bank holiday weekend everyone!🥳

Hi folks,

We are curious about how you would feel about Freds DIY going online as well as in store, if there was an option to shop online rather than in store would you take this option?

There would be a collection or delivery service available for these.

Let us know your thoughts below!
