Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

[NorthernDave]

Lots and lots of bundles of High5 gels and energy bars in the bargain bin in the bike section at Halfords in Halifax today.
I got a bundle of 10 energy bars for £5.00, less 10% BC discount - great value when the bars are normally £1.19 each. Best before dates are 09/16 so all good there too.
Apparently they're clearing the way for a revamped range, so there may be similar bargains to be had at other stores.

10% of gears, drivetrain and brakes of at Ribble. Build your own groupset in your basket and receive 10% off. put the same items in your basket as a groupset and pay full price, crazy really. total savings = £30 or so for a 105, 11 speed groupset

Will have to look in the two Cambridge ones tomorrow.

Nothing in the one in the centre;didn't get to the other one as I'd had enough walking about in the rain.

I think this has almost certainly been mentioned before, but if you're planning a purchase from Halfords don't forget the Morrisons fuel saver offer.

http://www.morrisonsfuelsaver.co.uk/gift-card-partners/halfords

Buy a Halfords* gift card in Morrisons and you get a voucher for 1p/litre off fuel for every £10 value on the gift card.

So, get a £50 gift card to spend on a couple of tyres (for example) and get 5p/litre off your next tank of petrol - or get £1,000 worth of gift cards to spend on that fancy new bike you've been looking at and get £1.00/litre off.

* - they do gift cards for lots of other retailers, but Halfords is the most bike related one...

Halfords Bilston have lots of clothing on the clearance rail. Saw a womans Boardman Waterproof (water not wind) for £15.
I was tempted even as a man

Why does the marketing as a woman's model if it fits and the colour is acceptableto you? You may find it too short on body or arms but otherwise, can't see the issue. As a tall woman, I've often had to buy 'men's' jackets etc

 

[Truth]

Agreed.. with me being a short arse too it would probably fit perfect.

The zip side swap would annoy me. I have a normal jacket from the US with the same 'problem'.

Quite a lot of decathlons mens have "wrong way round zips" never really bothered me.
There again i might be more suited to womans jackets because of my moobs !
