It certainly pays to shop around
« on: July 28, 2023, 08:23:25 PM »
Last week a significant electrical item in my house threw a seven.... so buy a new one {why not!} so checked on line and......

The identical item per store was:-

B&Q.................£140
Amazon............£136
Wickes.............£125
Screwfix...........£119

So after a discussion with the guy who is fitting it I got it from Toolstation..£99


.

I am not a pessimist, I just help them out when they're busy.

Moral of the story...........shop around, starting with Toolstation! >;
It's OK if you don't like me.
Not everyone has good taste!

Exactamundo!

I never gave Toolstation a thought, and considering the price difference between B&Q and Screwfix {considering it's the same company} I thought I was going to getting a bargain from Screwfix.
