Cheapest Cheap Headlamp Bulbs - pound shops

Wig

Those head lamp bulbs can be very expensive, the H1 H4 H7 etc

I frequent poundland and they opften have them in there 2 for £1 or
1 main in a set of spare bulbs indicators etc for a pound.

Buy what you need and a spare set to carry in the glove box incase it blows sooner then you expect - cheap quality an all. It's got to be better than paying through the nose £5 for one bulb or worse £7 - £8

I have 2 H1 from poundland in my car for the last 6 months or so.

How have the dealt with the 2.5% VAT rise?

Mate of mine bought a 3rd or 4th hand car last year and has spent most of that time replacing bulbs - I suspect this is why :rotfl:

I know pound LAND has started charging for carrier bags, don't know what pound world has done.

He could be buying Osram Nightbreakers?

i read somewhere they are getting manufacturers to reduce package size on most of their lines.

The Wagon Wheels business model.

Lidl currently has +50% bulbs at £3.99 a pair. Sadly they are not the Tesla ones they have had previously which were quite good but are marked Wotan and branded Ultimate Speed on the packaging.

Halfords are good for standard bulbs with trade card.

Yeah I've heard the " they broke at night" thing before :rotfl:

What I meant was the cheap nasty bulbs he keeps removing from his car are probably these pound shop specials

The poundland where I am isn't charging AFAIK, not that I take a bag anyway. But I did take one recently as was not charged.

A pound for a plastic bag would be crazy.

Maybe he is touching the glass as he puts them in? Mine are fine, 50p per bulb H1 maybe H4 I dunno, still glowing.

They weren't charging a pound, that would be ridiculous! 1p for small 2p for large. Which is fair enough I think. Most people just buy one or two small things there anyway.
