Very cheap and a useful little set for some smaller fixings:

Thats a good price for the 27 pc  :y, probably another Clearance job I bought the 18 Piece a few months back for 10 or 12 quid cant remmeber now, but they dont do that one any more so Halfords must be doing a Stock Clearance.

its a no brianer for £10.  ;)

Case and Hinges are well made as well as the Tools.  ;)

18 Piece.

Cheers for the heads up - just reserved a set at at my local branch! I too bought both the 3/4 drive sets when they were discounted earlier in the year. Useful good quality sets at a bargain price!

Still some on Halfords eBay Ron, just need to pay the £2.99 delivery cost which is probably cheaper than firing up thye Omega to pick one up, be quick though only 10 left.

Thanks Zirk - just ordered, for delivery Thursday/Saturday.
I didn't see anywhere to apply the discount code mentioned earlier in this thread by Fuse 19: still good value, though.  :y

I think the Code is only for the Halfords Stores, not really an issue over £1.87 though, compared to value of the tool kit.  ;)
