I got 3 but not much left. Will check back in couple of weeks and see if the offer still goes through.

Thought the same but noticed that if you hover over a size which is out of stock it will give an estimated time for them coming back in stock. Just ordered three and they estimate they'll be back in stock within 10-14 days smile

Same as smile

I figured it's because they can't fulfill the order within their pricing schedule so for some reason it goes to free delivery smile

Before the price was dropped to £7.50 they were £19.99 each, they had a three for £50 offer; the £9.97 still came off your total at checkout and was rounded up to £10.00, making them £12.50.

I think that makes sense.

Either way I've also purchased three. JPS, Cooper and Brabham.

Ordered my 3, 10-14 days delivery. I'll have forgotten by then so should make a nice surprise.

If they're of decent quality, I might come back for some more thumbup

Somewhat frivolous purchases...

I only really ride mtb but with family commitments and my commute I just don't get much time, so decided to buy a turbo trainer...

Cycleops fluid 2, matt and block



I then realised that the bolt through axle on my mtb meant it wouldn't fit in the turbo! Best solution? Buy a road bike! [biggrin]

Specialized allez sport in the sale for £540.

If we did we would probably be commended for doing our bit for the economy.

Well, it seemed rude not to. Managed to get the Trainer from a friend of a friend who didnt use it anymore. What should have been £350 new cost me £100. The saving covers most of the cost of the bike!

Now I just need a speed/cadence sensor...

Needed new Allen keys and could probably have managed with normal black ones. But these were in the sale and surely everyone needs 'Pride' Allen keys wink

Didn't need it, but Im in Finland so thought it would be rude not to add to Finnish knife collection, plus it was supposed to be 75 Euros, reduced to 38 Euros, so job done.



Now just need to find a use for it that doesn't get me into trouble again... OH caught me using one of the hunting knives to cut up my steak with last time.
