Default Homebase sale

Homebase are selling off all their own brand (Guild) power
tools. None of it good quality, but it seems very cheap.


I bought an 800w reciprocating saw for £24, and they had
a 1kw SDS+ drill for £29 and a corded 700w drill for £15.


As a slight aside to that, is it the 'Bunnings Effect' (TM) that H/B's
prices now seem to have more in whole pounds instead of £x.99 and
also there seem to be some unusual prices like £x.74 and £y.48?


Bunnings certainly dont play silly buggers with $x.99 prices here.
