bigtunes 0 Posted April 5, 2007 Sorry if this has been mentioned before but I couldn't see it on the search.. Basically if you have any kind of mechanical qualification or if you have a shed load of receipts from motor factors (and driving a C who hasn't!) you can get a trade card, giving you a discount on parts and tools. Halfords Its discussed here on this forum:Clicky and some of the discounts for 'everyday' type stuff looks quite good. If I manage to find my C&G certificate I'll give it a go at the weekend and if anyones interested I'll post up how I get on Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yalan 0 Posted April 5, 2007 yup - my C&G certs did the job. halfords own brand stuff is heavily discounted. Bought a trickle charger last week - down from £25 to £8 Bought alt & Pas belts today £7 down to £3.5 Odd packs down LOADS! £20 odd quids worth down to £5! Tools seem to be approx 1/3 off but varies especially if already on offer. Well worth having! SIP tools 0% discount :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
