Title: Delivery times
Post by: euronerd on September 03, 2007, 21:26:13
Saturday night/ Sunday morning, about 1am, sent an order off to Screwfix. This morning (Monday) about 10.30 it arrived. Quite good I thought. And delivery is free. And this is a village in the country oop norf. ;D

We've had similar service from Screwfix too.  Pity not many other companies can match it.

Kev, I could have sworn I spotted a thread somewhere else saying something about you getting up early.  I think I must have been seeing things.

Depends on your lifestyle kev. Most of my purchases are screws and fasteners but I've had tools from them and other stuff. They seem to have most things for the dextrous person.

Although their delivery can't be faulted, thet're not the cheapest for everything.

I wish you hadn't told me that Trixiebelle. I hate B&Q.

Have you got a bit of Bombay Mix stuck under 'C'?  ;D
