In Wickes t'other day, wanting some smallish (750ml) cans of paint for

The range is being changed v. soon to low VOC (about a year ahead of
legislation) and there are cans on sale at around £1.49 - £2.99.
Some are high VOC but many are lowish (up to 7.99%), across Master and
Trade.
Obviously limited colours etc. and stock will vary a lot between
branches.

I bought some gloss for the spare room, called Ice White or something. Its
white :-)

Pretty good paint as it goes.

Opened a tin of [some palish, brownish colour] and it was grey! Much
stirring later, it was the correct colour - phew!

We'll see how well it covers when the weather warms up a bit. Having a
'warm, well-ventilated room' atm is really either/or.
