Halfords Advanced Socket and Rachet Spanner Set
by CCSICeman » Mon Dec 08, 2014 10:55 am
Its been £150 for most of the year. Originally £250, but never ever actually seen it at this price.
Price dropped to £125 on Black Friday.
Today its only £100 (So much for Black Friday deals)
Seems a bargain to me.
here's the link in case anyone else is interested.

I have this exact one! Went online last year on Xmas day (Halfords do crazy deals on xmas day) and grabbed one.
They are great portable sets with a lifetime guarantee and that's a great price!!!

Worked there for 15 years until February this year, bought one the year I started in store and still have every piece.
It's my main set and I'm not a light user, so I can recommend based on my own experience.
At the end of the day where else are you gonna get a set where each piece works out at under a quid, with a Lifetime guarantee, on everything apart from ratchet internals, where you can buy raplacement ratchet internals if you do over cook it?
Even if you do break something, they're open every day but Christmas day, so come Sunday afternoon, or Easter sunday, when you've just got to complete that engine build, they're open
Their industrial tool chests are spot on too (usually available with a buy the roll cab, get the top box free arrangement). My 150 piece set sits neatly inside the very top section allowing me to keep everything in its intended slot so I know if I've misplaced anything.

They go up and down all the time, when I bought my set the year before last just kept going on every day until it dropped to the lowest price then reserved and collected, if you're not in a rush it is worth wasting a minute or so a day!

Worth looking at the 200 piece set at £150 (1/2 price), and the 150 piece kit at £100 (1/2 price too)

Rang up a Halfords over here in Holland this morning only to discover the whole chain is bankrupt. Who knew?
