There seems to be poor communication to the stores of online offers - I had the same experience ordering a tool chest bundle which included a top box, intermediate box and roll cab for £249 - the manager didn't believe it wasn't the more common offer which only has two of the items for that price.
I had the same when I reserved a tyre on-line for my mountain bike. The guys in the store knew nothing about it, and seemed mystified by the reduced price.

They reluctantly honoured it.

It's something Halfords should address.
Following a similar problem, I now always screen grab the offer.

I do too. I took a screenshot of the email and offer into the store with me when I got the socket set.

For those looking to show the state of a web page at a date in the past the Wayback Machine can help.
Unfortunately the Halfords socket set pages were last captured on the 18th of October, so show the half-price offers but not the extra £20: https://web.archive.org/web/20141018201330/http://...

It is also possible to ask the Wayback Machine to archive a page by going to the current version via the Wayback Machine - there's a button to archive that URL.

Might be handy when spotting future offers...

Good plan. In these days of paperless everything it's never wrong to head into the store clutching a printout!

Done Rob, thanks! wavey
Well I can now report that, thanks to Rob (trashbat), I received a cheque for £20 from Halfords this morning to compensate for the overcharge caused by their system's incompetences. Thanks again to Rob!
