Default Halfords Advanced Tools - 50% off

Not sure whether some of you guys are aware that Halfords have this offer on at the moment? I know some of you have trade cards so get it at the discounted price anyway, but just a heads up for the people who don't.

I've used Halfords Advanced stuff for yonks now and I highly rate it; pretty good quality and the Lifetime Guarentee is a bonus (with the exception of the ratchets obviously, but the repair kits are cheap enough - not that i've had any problems with my ratchets and they do get abuse!)

Worth a shot if somebody is looking for some new kit, or looking to buy a starter kit for somebody for christmas? I use the 150pc Socket set on a regular basis (I bought it a few years ago under the same offer) and I find it ideal for most jobs, so would be a good beginner set, with the option of further building a tool kit up.

Gus - Did the exact same mate, I took it back (with receipt) - handed it over and they didn't even ask to look at the receipt, just swapped it for another one
