Reserved one online for collection in store, but when I got there to collect, it was nowhere to be found.
Top service from halfords, they upgraded me to the 170 piece for the same price at the 150. Bargain!
Which store was that?! Almost worth a 200 mile round trip to try it again! I love the smell of FBH in the morning... The smell, you know that gasoline smell... Smells like...victory!

Good price for good kit. The Halfords 150 set is a core part of my tool box:

Clearly my tools always look like that!
The photo has got me wondering:
- where did all the space go?
- where are my Halfords ratchets (I tend to use my Facom and Wera)?
- where is my next tool chest going to go has I have maxed out 2 sets now and my high use sockets (3/8ths deep impact for my gun) never leave the bench top.
Can hardly move in my garage at the moment as hurting my back and my hand has left a build-up of projects waiting for me.Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

Reserved the 150 piece yesterday, went to the store this morning to pick it up, and the catches on the box were broken
So they gave me the 170 piece set for the same price

My 150 piece socket set arrived today and it looks nice and shiny. I'm off to give it a quick test replacing broken suspension springs on my mother's car. I've also got a front stub axle to change on my old Land Rover but that can wait for a bit. 2015 Discovery 4 HSE Corris with Blackpack
