Halfords TRADE CARD!

[dsgrnmcm]

Hi team

Last night i was reading the paper and saw a 10pc spanner / ratchet set reduced in halfords, even though i could of done with them when doing the shocks and torsion bars, i thought i would get them, and being a pikey i wanted a discount.

After looking at various web sites, and calling halfords customer services, i came to this:

Any member of the armed forces (or veteran card holder).
Any mechanic, enginer or maintaner (may need proof of qualification or blag it).
Any high user.

Any way i walked in to my local (barnstaple) halfords, walked up to the service / parts desk and said "Hi i'm in the armed forces, can i have a trade card please", "yes one minute" BOSH done, gave my name and address and ID card, sorted.

Up to 70% off halfords products and 50% off branded stuff (not inc ICE)

Deal.

Must be worth having one for the odd purchase :thumb2 but tbh I cant remember the last time I bought anything from halfords other than cleaning stuff when its three for two

I've found that their selection of car parts is not particularly good, significantly cheaper anywhere else I know you can get them even cheaper but as examples holts exhaust bandage £4.99 @ halfords last month exactly half @ £2.49 local motor factors, scotchlocks cant remember exact price but well into the clucking bell how much bracket, bag of 100 genuine £5 on ebay :nenau

The final nail in the coffin lid is the service at Halfords. Overall crap but often plummeting to apalling. Bad advice from generally unknowlegable assistants (some exceptions to the rule) if you can actually find an assistant because they all seem to be selling sat navs to chicks and playing with the stereos.

Even worse than that...........if it can get worse.............last time i went in there some old twat reversed into my car :hmh:hmh
