Thoughts on shed bases?

Getting a 10x7' Plastic shed from Costco ( Suncast Modernist 10 ft x 7 ft. Sliding Door Storage Shed | Costco )and trying to figure out shed base ideas. I was settled on just putting down a wood foundation as specified in the manual but then i saw people (mostly from the UK) using plastic grid things and filling it with pea gravel. Anyone have experience with this? This is definitely going to be a DIY and i'm pretty comfortable with most tools. I'm located at NJ Shore so it experiences high winds and 4 seasons. Concrete is out of the question as there's tax implications, and there is a chance that the configuration will change in a few years esp if we decide to put in a pool. submitted by /u/dsp3000 [link] [comments]
