I'm trying to buy these two items

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... yId_165524

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... yId_165633

they're in stock at my local store so I want to reserve them online and pick them up! The offer says one of them will be half price when i put them in my basket, but it's not working! I've tried it for collection and home delivery and can't get the discount to work. Is there something I have to do?

Would be great if someone could help me out!

cheers, rich.

    It's the place where I do all my shopping including food. My LBS used string for the spokes when I asked them to build me a new set of wheels for my bike, ripped me off good and proper. So now I just go to halfords for everything including carbon fiber stabilisers for Orange Alpine full susser that I use to cycle home from the pub when I'm off my face from sniffing glue.

    Thanks for your helpful response mate.

    Go into the shop and tell them. I've found that generally with Halfords, if you tell the checkout staff that something should be a lower price, they'll reduce it for you...

    Alternatively, some web stores only apply a discount at the final stage of the process. Try continuing with it up until the final "Buy" button, see if that works.

    Thanks mate, just went all the way to the end though and actually reserved them and still no luck! I'll give them a call tomorow and see if they can help!
