Yes, it's either hire a van yourself or pay the delivery charge, I don't think ours would fit in the wagon!

I've got their Professional 150 piece socket set and it's brilliant; currently half price (as it was when I got it).

Got this myself, good for the cash I suppose but it doesn't give you enough 1/2in sockets and the screwdriver bits are made out of cheese.

Oh and the sockets are multi splined which is an absolute hatred of mine when working on old rot boxes like my old alfa or the passat.

I think I've got that one or it might be the 100 piece. Either way it is very good quality and I was very surprised. No need for Snap On vanity baubles!

Thought I'd saved 25% off a Sonos Sub but the voucher code posted on HotUKDeals although it worked and the payment accepted and confirmation email sent, wasn't intended for use with Sonos stuff, so they have retracted my order.

Gutted!

Got my Wilko tea lights today from Wrexham. Although I had to pay a quid to park, my buy was beneficial overall, as I even bought some fairy lights on 50% discount at the store; the fairy lights that I can live without. No regrets, as they'll keep me happy all year round. You can't put a price on happiness, nor can you bargain for that. You can, if bargaining is your happiness.

I would like to think I am in part responsible for your happiness today.

Lisa, your suggestion was the seed that became a mother to my happiness today. Had you not found such a fantastic offer by Wilko for me, I wouldn't have known. Then I wouldn't have gone in, and gathered further 'discounted fairy lights' happiness on my mission for tea lights. Think about it. This makes you way more than partly responsible, actually.

I was going to put my previous post for your attention as 'FAO Lisa'. But I thought that if you didn't pay attention to it, I'd see my backside.

Many thanks, you AM a star.

You are more than welcome Swati.

I am happy that you are happy due to your bargain gathering. So, all in all, great happiness has come from this small suggestion.

Yep, it certainly has, Lisa!
