Whilst shopping in Wilkinsons.

[dragonheart]

Whilst shopping in Wilkinsons of Exeter this weekend i cam across this on their bargain shelve. Simoniz back to black to black new look tyre shine for 30p per can, i bought all 25 cans. Halfords is currently selling this product for £4.99 per can and it has a 5 out of 5 customer review. Used it this morning with excellent results. WHAT A BARGAIN.

25 cans? Why?

Ah, back to black - remember slathering that on my dad's sierra 1.6 to bring the bumpers back to something respectable.

[ILoveMondeo]

Bargain indeed but 25 cans? OP is set for a big huffing session maybe?

[Pulse]

You're nuts.

[58warren]

Wow you must have really shiny tyres!

Mind you 30p is a bit of a steal!

I'll have to look in the Wilkinsons in Liverpool see if they've got a similar deal. (assuming the local scallies havent bought them all up already for non motoring purposes)

What did the cashier say?

I'm glad it works. I asked wifey to get some Dethlac (spray to kill ants) which I've used with good effect before. It was 75% off so she bought 4 cans.

Maybe it's old or something, but it's absolutely useless - even sprayed directly on ants it seems to stun them for a moment, then they're off again! The 'barrier' effect it's supposed to have is completely ineffective.

New house purchase?

Maybe the OP just owns a lot of rubber products that need buffing.

you can fix it semi-permanently by just using a hot air gun and some patience.

25 cans because it was so cheap, i use a tyre shine every time i clean my cars (usually at least once a week)and lastly because i cant resist a bargain. Just checked fleabay, some sellers have 4 packs for 19.99, i got 25 cans for £7.50. The cashier never batted an eyelid, just asked how many cans i had so she didn't have to scan them all.

That lot should last you a while.

[HeatonNorris]

I haven't used bullst spray tyre shine for about 20 years!

Don't see the point, unless you're an Arfur Daley type bomb-side trader.

Tesco were selling Value beans for 3p/can last weekend. It's a damn good job you didn't see that or you'd have farted your way to the moon by now.
