December in the country, where holiday sparkle means the yard floodlight that never turns off and wrapping usually involves baler twine.
Between the frosty mornings and festive madness, it’s a great time to get your place (and your people) sorted for winter. Whether you’re tackling jobs, treating the kids or trying to find a gift that’s not socks again, TFM Superstores have got you covered.
Here’s your TFM December Checklist packed with our most practical picks (and a drop of Christmas cheer).
When it’s pitch black by 4pm and you’re still trying to find that one missing gate latch, a good torch becomes less of a tool and more of a best friend.
From handheld torches and headlamps to rechargeable LED work lights, it’s worth having a few dotted around, in the workshop, truck, feed room, and (just in case) next to the kettle.
There’s no such thing as bad weather – just the wrong clothes. From thermal base layers and waterproof coats to gloves, hats and socks you’ll actually want to wear, TFM has all the gear to keep you warm.
Whether you’re feeding stock, splitting logs or braving a Boxing Day dog walk, we’ve got comfort covered.
Few things make December feel more festive than the smell of a real Christmas tree. Whether you go for a no-drop Nordmann or a traditional Norway Spruce, there’s something satisfying about picking your own and wrestling it into the car like a total champion.
TFM stocks fresh trees, stands and nets to make the process as easy as possible, which means all that you need is a bit of space and a vacuum cleaner on standby.
December frost has no mercy. One minute you’re fine, the next you’re Bambi on ice. Keep things safe with road salt, grit bins, and spreaders that stop ice in its tracks.
Perfect for farmyards, drives, or anyone with a habit of saying “I’ll salt it later.”
Whether it’s for pest control or target practice on a crisp afternoon, airguns and pellets make great winter companions.
TFM stocks a wide range from trusted brands, along with CO₂ cartridges, targets, and accessories.
Little farmers deserve big fun and TFM’s farm toys collection has everything from die-cast tractors to working trailers and livestock sets.
They’re built tough enough for carpet farming, garden missions, and delicate sibling negotiations.
Cold weather and flat batteries go together like mince pies and cream. Whether it’s the tractor, quad bike or torch, keeping chargers and spare batteries around saves headaches (and jump leads).
TFM stocks reliable battery chargers, jump starters, and multi-packs of AA, AAA, and D cells.
TFM Tips:
December’s a great month for patching leaks before the real storms hit. Whether it’s corrugated roofing sheets, fixings or flashings, TFM’s got materials to keep your sheds, shelters and stores dry all season long.
TFM Tips:
A good space heater can turn an icebox of a workshop into a haven of productivity (or at least somewhere you can make tea without shivering). Choose from electric, gas, or diesel heaters – perfect for garages, greenhouses and barns.
TFM Tips:
Whether it’s something for the workshop, the wardrobe, or just a bit of festive fun TFM’s shelves are full of great-value Christmas gifts.
Warm socks, mugs, multi-tools, farm toys, and gift vouchers for the fussy ones who “don’t need anything” (we all know one).
TFM Tips:
December is all about family, frosty mornings and fireside cups of tea, but it’s also about being prepared. TFM Superstores have everything you need to make the month brighter, safer and just a bit more fun. Plus, we’re only closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day, so you’ve got plenty of time to pop in and stock up!
Whether you shop in-store, prefer to Click & Collect or enjoy Local Delivery, we’ll make sure your Christmas runs smoothly (even if your wrapping doesn’t).
