Have you tried any of your "real" local builders merchants? Jewson, Buildland, Edwards etc? Wickes are NOT cheap for building materials, trust me. I have just built a double garage in my back garden using blocks & bricks. 1 ton bag of sand/stone for concrete making from my local Buildland is £34.00 + £9.00 delivery. I have been ordering as much stuff as I can accommodate in 1 go to save on delivery charges. It's also know as ballast if that helps? You MUST shop around in order to save your pennies.
