I acquired a Bosch 37cm rechargeable hedge trimmer at the local B&Q
(Newcastle upon Tyne) at the weekend for £55.63 instead of the normal
£69.98.

Some may remember I enquired about rechargeables a few week ago;
unenthusiastic responses, except for a couple of owners, but I'm well
pleased with the above: it will allow me to do quick tidy-ups around the
place, rather than get out the much heavier mains powered job. Also
gives an excuse to knock off when the battery runs down. Seems very
quiet and quite powerful enough for the tidy-ups.

Warning: although the display had a [massive] sign advertising the
reduced price, "The Computer" still had it at the higher price and we
had some trouble getting the reduction. But since this looks like 20%,
and since it's the end of season, I am guessing that the lower is the
proper price.
