Hi, just a heads up to new/cyclists (like me) Halfords has a great sale on helmets. There helmets worth £80 - £90 that are being sold of at £20. Also they have energy gels sold an the introductory price of 30p which is great. I got both today.

I think you mean "originally priced at..." or similar. They might not be worth anything.

I bought some tyres from Halfords today. £32.99 in store, £23.99 via click and collect (Conti Gators). Lesson - always check the Internet price before buying (luckily I did). I don't know how they can justify the price difference when it is the same tyres you are buying.

They can't, that's why they'll honour it in store.

Of course if you don't check they'll charge it anyway

I know what you mean its ridiculous. I know the guy who works at my local store so normally when I buy stuff he will check to see if its cheaper online and charge me that price. It may be worth asking them to do this of your buying a bunch of stuff.
