Fecking Halfords

Been down to Halfords today. They offer a trade card to anyone who buys a fair few car parts or works in the trade, according to their website. So I went down there today with an invoice book to prove that we're VAT registered and a stack of invoices. Can I have one? Can I fuck, because "You're not a garage".Has to be one of the most bizarre marketing schemes ever. Nobody who actually works full time in the trade is going to bother with it, barring for the occasional set of tools to be broken and returned for perpetuity, because they'll be able to get bits delivered at the right price because they're in the trade. Hell, the only reason I want one is for odd tools, bulbs and for the occasions when I don't want to wait for ECP to deliver something (or more usually, 8 out of the 10 items I asked them for).Maybe I should wear a baseball cap or something. I wanted to hear a subwoofer a few weeks ago, and was told it was impossible.

BTW, that was me from work, don't know how the hell I managed to post from my boss's google calendar account using his work email though.
