I am a Cheapskate!!

[Gary-Lew]

Bought 2 of these in Halfords today as they were only a £1 in the bargain bucket section!, they are refillable so will put some megs in and see if they are worth a quid

 

[Bluebeard]

AWESOME! I'm getting my ass down to Halfords then...

£1 you can't really go wrong can you??

 

[Pep]

I'll be down for some of those babys tomorrow then if I get a chance!

Who needs a Gilmore

 

[Matt.J]

I picked one of these up (last one there) from halfrauds today Gary and tried it out when I got home. I was really impressed. And it's great that it's 're-fillable.'

Thanks for the reccomendation. One of the best £1's ever spent tbh. :approve:

 

[Gary-Lew]

Good news then!!, have not tried out mine yet

 

[AlexS]

They available in every halfords? If thats the case im going straight down there tommorow.

I dunno Al, I went to the local one today and they only had one left (because Gary took the other 2!!!! :dapprove :clown: lol

But I would definately have a look in a halfords if your passing, it's worth it. There was other stuff there aswell like tar and bug remover and things ykno. Might not be anywhere near the car care stuff though, in Swansea halfords the bargain bin bit is in another part of the store. Took me well over 10 mins to find it

Worth a look though

Cheers fella I might go and have a look tommorow, I like the idea of it.

 

[Brand86]

For a quid definitely worth a shot I guess...although that does seem terribly cheap!

 

[Matt.J]

Yeah, the halfords shampoo inside it is pure cack, but like gtvlew said, it's really easy to top up with whatever you want, super suds or whatever.

Saying that, it made some very nice foam, but doubt the mixture they put in there was very strong.

At a pound each that is bargain, Halfords shampoo was my daily drive shampoo of choice till I found how cost effective Megs Hyper Wash is.

There you go, even the master himself uses it. No excuse not to try and pick one up now

 

[-Leigh-]

Wow, Halfords it is. Hopefully they'll have some left.

 

[Gary-Lew]

I had the 2 tems above a tube of AG metal polish, a 1 Litre AG clean wheels and a 35 piece Halfords professional rachet/socket toolkit all for 22 quid

 

[MRBILLYUK]

Bought 4 of them today . The guys at Halfords looked at me like i was mental when i asked them if they were only £1 each as they weren't marked up with a price , until he checked the price on the till

 

[The Big Yin]

They had some in my local about 5 iirc they also had Megs Trim Detailer for £3 Some good bargains worth a look

They had 2 really cool Stanley bags that would be ideal for putting all your valeting gear and PC in for £15 even came with wheels and its own handle ala suitcase style but had loads of pockets to stuff things into

 

[Rich]

Had naff in all the local one this evening

Same :dapprove:
The clearance stuff was just rubbish.

They had 1 left in the Halfords in Poole today, so I got that. Seems to foam up ok. Will try it on the car tomorrow.

 

[daydotz]

put some pics up please

 

[koi]

picked up a couple of these today, worth a punt for a few quid

 

[koi]

Was looking for some shampoo yesterday and couldn't see any Meguiars, have Halfords stopped stocking it?

 

[Gary-Lew]

Following on from my thread a couple of weeks ago http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=293654
here are a few pics if it in action , really impressed with how much foam it gives, and at only a quid its the best cleaning bargain i have ever bought!:approve:

Re: My £1 bargain foamer in action

I emptied the stuff out of mine as I didn't like the look of it. I need something to put in it now lol. Watered down car wash wax didn't foam up much.

Watered down mate, put a pretty big blob in mind!

Ahh, will try it a bit stronger tommorow then!

 

[realnumber 1]

Just managed to pick the last one up today on the way home. Took me ages to find it, I think they must have thought I was going to be a shop lifter or something

 

[Russ.]

^lol i picked a couple of these up last week.

Would have had more if they had some more in stock.

 

[dazcole36]

just brought 2 from halfords today in chilwell nottingham and guess what there is still about 10 left if anyone is in this area.
