Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

[figbat]

I consider Evans/Sports Direct/House of Fraser/Wiggle a means to an end. If they have what I want at a price that pleases me I’ll use them, grudgingly. Whilst I hate giving them money, sometimes they have genuine bargains or stock that isn’t available elsewhere. I’ll exhaust all other options before going to them though, including using them for price matching elsewhere.

You are free to shop wherever you want in this country.

I understand some of the flak Evans/SD get. I ordered 2 bikes last year in their sale and whilst there was a day or two's delay in the delivery and tracking was useless, the bikes were such a bargain (one Whyte ebike & Forme MTB) and any hassle was quickly forgotten. Personally I'm happy to pay £20 to get a bike delivered. In fact I've paid 5x that once.

Sport and Leisure are doing 26" Marathon Winter Plus (with extra spikes) for £19.99 delivered on ebay (cheaper than their website) Ebay have a £4 off code so you get a pair for £32 delivered.

Updating my 15 year old Snow Studs that let go on me in January. 140 extra spikes this time and more flexible rubber than the old tyres.

A bargain.

I've finally had a clear out of 'way past their sell by date' bib shorts. I had no choice. SWMBO gave the order. I'm a career tight arse. When I part with money it's like losing a family member. I've had Giordano, Endura, DHB and many other brands including the worst of Planet X. Has anyone recently found any bargains? I need some that'll stand the test of time and last me 25 years or more like the ones being thrown away. I suppose the budget is under £70 but for something exceptional I might go a bit higher.

Good time of year to buy shorts. Have you checked out Altura & Halfords?

Halfords is a strong favourite 👍 The Boardman shorts get good write ups and won't break the bank. I'll take a look at Altura too. Thanks 👍
