    You can buy them from Wickes and probably B&Q etc. I do think they are a fantastic buy. They are rather large and would probably keep mine in the garden now. For indoors I will use Sarah's idea and use a cat litter tray. (Thank you Sarah).

    Well, I bought my Tuff Spot (finally) on Wednesday, from Wickes. On Thursday it was a pond with rubber ducks and fishing nets for baby A. Now my kids have turned it into dinosaur land - wood bark, stones, weeds (great way to let them use real plants!) and toy dinosaurs, kept them happy in the garden all weekend. It's definately been worth it - easy to store, plenty of space (but they can still reach the middle), and I'm brimming with ideas for it when I can get it back from my kids!

    I think it was £16.99. And I think it will be worth every penny, to be honest x

    Must admit, I'd never actually seen one of these things in action before, but took my neighbours' 5yr old into school today and just inside the classroom door was a Tuff Spot.
    Was quite chuffed that I knew what it was!!!!

    Going to get one this weekend I think.

    Thanks for the tips.
