Join uk.freecycle.org for your local area. You can pick up loads of weird stuff completely for free. I’ve seen garden furniture and slabs on my local site in the last month.

Ebay’s a great place to start browsing, and you might just snap up a bargain. Check prices against B&Q etc though to make sure you aren’t paying over the odds.

Best of luck! I’m 2 years on from where you are now, so know how it feels starting from scratch. I’m very smug as I just got 10 enormous planters free from a local nursery through freecycle!

I know that Tesco in Milngavie (Glasgow) has money off there garden furniture just now I got mine from there 3 years ago and it lasted great. There is a builders merchant in Kirkintilloch (McNairs) who's prices are OK for slabs, fencing etc.

Builder base is the cheapest or other builders merchants. This type of materials are expensive from a garden place

Best places are B&Q, Homebase or Focus and there is bound to be at least one of those near you. My favourite for garden stuff is probably B&Q. You could also try specialist garden centres like Dobbies (which has branches all over Scotland) or a local independent garden centre.
