don't shop for DIY often so I can't tell how big the difference is.

Very approximately, how much more would I pay at my huge local B&Q
than at my much-smaller Focus?

Maybe there has been a price survey of DIY stores in a magazine.

I don't mind travelling to Focus to see if they have an item in stock
if the saving over B&Q's price makes it worth it.

Thank you for any info.

What neck of the country are you in?

I've found Focus very dear,but cannot make a comparison with B&Q because
I've never stepped foot in a B&Q shed.
Mainly because I have a large local DIY handyman shop a stones throw away
and if that was not there then a shed called taskers DIY is by far cheaper
than Focus,Rapid hardware,Jems DIY,Wickes...and two others by me. :-)
