    The bicycle thermals they seem to do every month or so are also just as good.

    After the 1st wash those Penneys thermals will be like a baby gro on you.

    They shrink a serious amount when washed and dried.

    I have multiple magnet tools, they are extremely handy more so on cars than bikes but I wouldn't be without one.
    the magnetic dishes are better IMO, stick them to the frame as you work and just place the fasteners in them as you work.
    not plastic ones obviously.

    Do Cotters do a January sale? The lid I want is 60 euro cheaper there, so if I buy now (with 20% discount) then mcshop are cheaper, but it won't take much of a sale to make the Cotters price cheaper, and I can afford to wait.
    I'm feeling just a tad guilty as mcshop were dead sound to deal with and no hassles with a return I had to do. Never ordered off Cotters online but the level of service in the shop is close to non-existent, but they are cheap!

    The only problem with them is that you cant actually press them on and keep them on.I bought 1 of them before in Lidl,and you have to keep your finger pressed on it for it to light,which is kinda crappy if you need to work on the bike by the roadside in the dark.Means you have only 1 hand free.

    Still handy to have on the keyring and a decent enough light too.
