I have the Trade Card, is it actually any good? I would happily buy some Halfords stuff if the discount and warranty were good. I have heard that you need a reciept to warranty tools, is this true? I have a load of old Halfords tools which all say Made In England on them and look very similar to Britool.
You can register your Halfords trade card online now, so you can see the trade prices at home... Which is excellent as it was a PITA to keep trotting down to the store or phoneing up However My card came up as inelligable but a trip to the store revealed that they seem to have some sort of 'check' in that you have to have your card 'verified at the store, then it will add to your halfords account (just sign-up with an email, nothing special) They just entered my number on their system and it worked when I went home
The prices are best on consumables for cars etc, as you wuld expect, and mainly on Halfords branded stuff, but significant discounts on Tools/Tool chests etc as well !! However you don't allways get the bundle deals so it can be cheaper when a particular deal is on to buy retail, as the same codes and discounts etc don't usually apply to trade. For instance the last time they had the bundle deal it was cheaper to buy Trade but another time the bundle was cheaper, but individual Chest prices are significantly cheaper trade. you have to pick and choose. the last time the 15% deal came on workshop it was cheaper to buy retail with a bundle, and yet the weekend before it was cheaper to buy trade, But allways worthwhile double checking the trade prices
Yeah...that's it..you need to take your card in and say it said your card was invalid or whatever the error said....they punch the number in to verify it then it will work
It is indeed.but be aware although you can mix and match, I. E. Choose whether you buy at trade or retail I found the website refused to show some of the retail bundle deals once logged in....it was Infuriating. .but if you get retail items in first then log in to see trade it allows both....hard to explain but hopefully you'll get what I mean...makes no difference to your actual order.. and I thoroughly agree ref halfords industrial range..great vfm when on offer

some great bargains from the ebay seller mentioned a couple of pages back. anyway I shouldn't suggest anything untoward as I'm certain there isn't, but check out that ebay post because he has some cracking prices and seems a really nice chap to boot, awesome prices on these clamps in particular.
Yeah that was me...we'll the followup about the clamps was meThanks to whomever posted the link to the eBay shop a couple pages back I got a hold of 3 Jorgensen clamps, two 36" versions and one 6"! All for the cheap price of £26 and they arrived the next day! These have an incredible clamping force and I will be keeping an eye on this shop incase anything else interesting pops up! Also tempted by some of the torx drivers he has!
they are fantastic quality arn't they. ...I had just bought a full set of Irwin XP clamps but to be honest I should have just doubled up on these as they are soo much cheaper and close to the same strength I would expect...ho is other items are great also. ..if it wasn't that I want to collect Wera and pbswiss I would have them for sure as I know the quality is there...Picked up one of most...leaving the compressor though despite being cheap as I definitely think I want at least a 50 litre unit :/
I seem can't find the link. Mind point me to that link?
