Re: Bargain Alert Thread
Are Alpine Trek an okay website? I found them searching for other bits and bobs and they seem to have a fair amount of decent stuff with 40% + discounts on. https://www.alpinetrek.co.uk/endura-hummvee-3-4-cycling-pants/?cnid=c292517c3d4fd913437b1325a64cc86d&backlink=eyJ1cmwiOiJcL2N5Y2xpbmctdHJvd...

So now my feed is full of barely disguised adverts, oops! :roll: So once I've cleared them out does anyone know any interesting ones to follow, like the HTR one? ...

Yeah quite right - it started off good then he just... became a thief that lived in the woods? I mean I guess he made a decent shelter but he just... stole stuff, from empty holiday cabins over a long period of time?
