That's what Halfords is for really. For most things, you pay the 'Halfords tax' for the convenience; when you need something NOW and it's four o'clock on a Sunday.

Last time I went to Halfords I bought a stereo. Waited (on a saturday) for 20 minutes in the only open check out. The girl there treated we like I was a 9 year old...never heard such sarcasm and thinly veiled insults. I was so stunned I called the manager out. Not sure what happened to the idiot but I have never gone back nor shall I. Staffed by zit faced morons and that includes the manager.

I had a guy refuse to sell me some welding tips as i wasnt buying the wire as well and couldnt sell them incase they were the wrong ones i need. "i need the 0.9 tips", "are you sure? i cant really sell them without knowing what wire you're using", "ill go elsewhere."

Turns out they decide what to search for not you!

Rarely visit them any more.....everything different now.....most staff are school leavers ...

This said, my local Halfords has a 30p coffee machine, that's worth stopping in for!
