Halfords have a special offer on at the moment. If you purchase a industrial tool cabinet you get the 6 drawer industrial tool chest for free.

The industrial tool cabinet is well made and is one of the best quality tool cabinets I have ever seen, the bearings on the drawers are good quality and the drawers even have a retaining machanism to prevent the drawers from sliding open when the cabinet is moved. You can also lock the cabinet and the tool chest.

I bought one of these about a month back and I have been using it at work.

It's £329.99 for the tool cabinet which used to be £389.99 but you get the free chest worth £259.99

I was checking ebay on a daily basis and could not find a cabinet of this quality for this low price, so getting the tool chest for free is a real bargain.

I just stumbled across my receipt for this and noticed that I paid £389.99

I'm still happy though at that price as it is a quality item :wink:

I looked at these when this offer was on a couple of years ago,they are superb quality especially as you get the top box free.I wouldn't buy the draw organisers as they feel cheap and are expensive
I bought mine from Costco 10 years ago (£320) it was an American make called Homak it's still going strong but to be fair it has sat in the corner of the garage and doesnt get moved about,but the draws are used daily and work well
regular applications of WD40 keep the runners running smoothly

Good deal. When over in america I was in Lowes. Looked at a tool chest that was on sale was $699 and was selling it for $450. I opened the top drawer to discover a CD Radio with Speakers. :shock:

The quality of the cabinet was clear to see. It had drawer liners and all the trays were removable.

Lovely cabinet.

Today is the last day for the special offer.

I have reviewed the cabinet here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlkfJlsA_dM


I am not sure if they will have another similar offer when this one ends :dunno:

If you haven't put your car in there for the last 3 years, you can't call it a garage any more :)

I can't remember the last time I even saw somebody put their car in their garage.
I know i've never done it.

To be fair when they was branded Nationwide we had our cam belt done as it was the most competitive price in the area,they were spot on called me on time to say the car was ready,when we picked the car up the service manager talked us through the bill and what we were paying for
now they have branded them up Halfords who knows :roll:
