    No, you would buy it all over time. Its just that you bought in one hit.

    The question is did you plan your buying well? bunching similar priced items in to 3's and buying them 3 at a time to make the most of the buy 2 get one free offer they have on at the moment? or did you just stick it all through as 1 go and just get the cheaper stuff free?

    When I was buying stuff the offer was on as well but I would buy 3 packs of applicators then buy 3 packs of microfibres then 3 items about the same price to maximise the amount saved.

    I grouped them together and got a total saving of £59.23

    I spent £60 in Hellfrauds on friday just topping up my stocks of megs cloths and some detailer and clay kit and went to town on the car over the weekend.. spent 8 hours over 2 days:

    2 Bucket method wash.
    Megs clay all over.
    Polish/clean paint with Megs #82 Polish.
    Seal with Megs #21.
    Protect with Nattys Blue Paste Wax.
    Final Buff with Megs NXT Spray Wax.
    Clean glass with Megs NXT glass cleaner.
    Polish lights with Megs PlastX.
    Polish exhaust tip with Megs NXT all metal polysh.
    Black plastics with Megs Trim Detailer.
    Wheels cleaned with Megs Hot Rims.
    Wheels wiped with NXT Speed detailer then waxed with Wheel Wax.
    Tyres blacked with Megs Endurance High Gloss.
    Door shuts wiped with Speed Detailer and polished with Spray Wax.

    And then it rained, so no pictures!!!

    When I bought the stuff in halfords I got the monkey to put the stuff through the till in batches of 3 just like Little John!!!! (saved an extra few quids that way!!!)
