    Smile Fathers Day goodies in the US of A

    Just been to the local Wal-Mart in Bowie MD and picked up a Meguiars Show Car Shine kit - it includes - Soft Wash Gel 473ml, Quick Interior Detailer 473ml, Quick Detailer 473ml, Cleaner wax 473ml, Profesional wash sponge, Hi-tech applicator pad and Supreme Shine Microfibre towel.

    All for just $19.99, thats less than 12 quid

    I've also managed to pick up some Gold Class wax paste $9.65 (5 quid), Scratch X $7.65 (<4 quid) Cleaner Wax paste $5.65 (<3 quid)

    The prices are absolutely crazy - I've had to get another suit case to put my purchases in - ****** the trainers

    Led you have picked up some heavy bargains.
    I mean i hope they dont hammer you on excess baggage.
    The US is real cheap for a lot of detailing products.
    Im on the lookout for a porta polisher when i go back on tuesday.

    Fingers crossed I should be OK, we brought out 3 large suitcases and a 6" rod tube.

    I delivered a large quantity of UK made angling products (Rods etc) that cost a kings ransom in the US for some angling buddies - So I have 1 x 27" suitcase totally empty. plus plenty of space in my 6" rod tube.

    Might be able to squeeze a few more cleaning products before I return.
