Rapid Electronics are having a 24 hour sale. I thought I'd let you all know what I'd seen. Get your orders in before midday friday. Why is it I can never think of anything I want in these situations? I know that tomorrow afternoon when the sale is after I'll be able to think of loads. Hope this helps someone out though. And by the way- No I don't work for them! Wish I did though. Staff discount would be proper handy.
I didn't say they would have anything left! On a similar note did you know that Maplins are moving away from components and are going to be just a shit dixons? Means the only way I can get stuff now is online. Not good when I only want 2 or 3 resistors. I might open a shop. Or I might just continue being a lazy bastard and get a beer out of the fridge.
As per usual i make a big order and spend ages trying to think of every little thing i might need and as soon as i press the PAY button, i immediately remember the one thing that was the reason i was making an order in the first place and that i forgot to buy
Thats part of why I love the internet. It allows me to see that I'm not the only forgetful person on the planet. The whole of my flat is covered in post-it notes for that very reason. The other reason I love the internet is hardcore pornography
I like Rapid.. though the delivery prices are annoying. (£5) Maplins has cheaper delivery (£3 I think), though the general prices suck..
EDIT: Woah! A place which is about in between the two: http://www.bitsbox.co.uk/ £1.50 delivery for any size.
Maplins has free delivery if you go into a shop and order stuff from there. They give you a ring when its arrived and you can just go and pick it all up.
Rapid and CPC are probably who we order from most often although JPR have good prices. Most places offer free shipping if you order over £30 of stuff.
I'll have to have a proper look at bitsbox, last time i tried the site was down
