100% trade discount (Halfords)
Got myself a trade card from the local Halfords the other week. Used it for the second time on Tuesday to get a few bits including a Pop Rivet Gun.
The total came to approx £36 which I thought was pretty good as the motorbike oil was £31 on the shelf never mind the other bits I got too. When I
looked at the receipt I realised that the Halfords own "Hand Rivetter Kit" was listed as £0.00 - the normal price is £11.99

are you sure it wasn't that the discount was £0.00?
you should only get trade on professional tools and service parts. the riveter is definitely not professional range! if it's not, i'll get
down and get myself one too

If it was that then they gave me £25 discount on a £31 bottle of oil!
The riveter actually seems quite good too. Although i've only used in for 6 rivets.

When i used to work for maplin i got 100% staff discount on some items (obiously someone at Head office made a mistake).
Once it was a voltmeter worth £8.
You lookat the reciept afterwards and some ittems were £0.00, now thats caring for staff!
