I've just been to the local builders supplies merchant to get myself some new hacksaw blades,I was going to visit Wickes on the assumption that they would be the cheapest.Much to my surprise  it turns out that the local merchant was £3 cheaper but if you think that I'm happy  imagine how the customer before me feels ![[image]](http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt231/southcoastangling/Smileys/confused0006.gif "[image]") he bought a load of bits and pieces together with a Makita drill.
The young lad behind the counter added up his total and charged him £1.85p for the drill  ![[image]](http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt231/southcoastangling/Smileys/thsm_cool.gif "[image]") ![[image]](http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt231/southcoastangling/Smileys/party0012.gif "[image]") ![[image]](http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt231/southcoastangling/Smileys/thneenerneener.gif "[image]") ![[image]](http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt231/southcoastangling/Smileys/th1970.gif "[image]") ![[image]](http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt231/southcoastangling/Smileys/happy0158.gif "[image]")
(that's £1.85p instead of £185.00p)

You should have heard him on the phone pleading with the lucky customer to come back and pay the full price  needless to say lucky customer was having none of it ![[image]](http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt231/southcoastangling/Smileys/happy0194.gif "[image]")
