Halfords have lost the plot!
strapping young lad:
you cant call halfords a parts shop anymore, its more of an accessories shop now...
i mean, i nearly spent 20 quid on one light bulb for the car the other day but whilst i was in work wandered down to the local independent parts bloke
4 quid

I think its called "Outdoor World" now :lol: :lol: :lol:
There is one on the trading estate opposite my works, so its handy for some bits and bobs.
I got thinking last month and went in with a hand full of receipts from Halfords and other motor factors and asked for a trade card.
Within 5 minutes I had one :D they didn't even check if I was a garage owner or high use customer or look at the receipts.
So now most things I get are at the very least a third cheaper :D with th Trade Card.
Thank goodness for staff that are on the ball :wink:

Whilst I don't buy parts at halfords their pro range of tools are excellent, lifetime guarantee, just like snap on but without snap ons prices and they do honour the guarantee without any problems too.
trustyrusty:
it's not just me then :) went in local one at loughbrough which as a large cycle department for some cotton pins for my push bike, the little spot infested kid behind the counter never heard of them ,when i told him what there for he said " try the car department" :evil: .then went down to the car parts counter as they had a big sale of wd40 on the counter pick up a can waited in the que then to be told you cant pay for that here :evil: :evil: you have to go to the other counter!!!! a few words were said.
