Halfords tool chests

Saw this deal and could not resit.

Don't think there has ever been such a good deal for these chests.

Just need a ramp now.

Fancy a brew at Loomies PM me.

Many thanks for pointing this one out. I've wanted a set up like this for 30 years ever since I was offered a knocked off Snap On 9 drawer chest for £50 but didn't have the cash at the time. Since then I have never been able to justify the massive expense. Just reserved mine for collection tomorrow.
(knocked off not really the best description a Snap On man who a friend dealt with had ordered 1 and been sent 10 but only charged for 1, at least that's the story I was told)

I saw this thread and popped down to my local Halfords and bought one. The wife was not too happy but I am sure she will bank it and use it to her advantage in a few weeks.

Halfords seem to have a deal on these again. I just got the Industrial Bundle (top and bottom sets combined) for £350, so about £280 off.

I've always wanted one and am now at the time of life when I can have one  :)

For top and bottom, that is a canny price!

Now to do 'em justice you need to spend a grand on tools  :)

I will probably spend the rest of my life looking for the tools just to end up bequeathing them to someone.

lol   Having inherited my grandads tools, and my dads as well as my father-in-law giving me a ton of tools, and all the stuff I've acquired myself over the years, I think I'll have to wait for a sink-hole to open under the garage!

Wish I'd been more selective - now I don't have the heart to chuck 'em out/sell them on, because I would feel too guilty!

Yet I know my daughters'll just bin them! :haha:
