Blaggage: may the Lord forgive me.
« on: 07 January 2010, 19:02:48 »
I finally made it out today (nightmare journey; using a 'wrong-wheel-drive' borrowed car) to the Vx dealer, to buy a new radiator top-hose, clips and 5 Ltrs. of 'red' antifreeze.

Ahem! (confession time)...... ::)
I haven`t actually got a T.C card (but have fully intended to get one), but I mentioned to the counter-chap that I 'usually' get stuff on T.C, but in my hurry today, I forgot to bring the card.
Result......
BIG discount blagged: £36. retail......actually paid: £24. :-*

I really-really MUST get a T.C card.  ;)

Respect.   :y :y

Why bother with a TC card if you can deal with a company and get away with it, at least try it next time.  Then admit it's run out.   :y :y :y :y

Banbury?  I'm going there to get trackrod end tomorrow if you want me to pick up.

Had a leaflet through - 5l antifreeze under a tener (ex vat), 20l drum, £32 + VAT.  Might treat myself, esp as her Rover drinks it like petrol....

Was that just the Banbury stealer?

As I have a few flushes yet left to do it would come in handy......

If anyone is near me (or passing), I'm more than happy to get TC stuff if I'm going.

as per other thread, yes please, save me a trip. Actually your going to regret posting the above...

1) - Box (20) of the standard spin on filters
2) - I'll have a drum of that anti-freeze too, thats a good price
3) - If they have any of the 5L screen wash bottles, get me 4
4) - If they have them in stock, couple of brake sensor cables
