Title: water hose connectors, bargain

You can get two green water hose connectors in Sainsbury's for about £1.85, good quality ones as well, bargain I think, I just got 20.

It just got me thinking, this site could do a page where people could list the cheapest window cleaning stuff or any discounts/bargains that are out there.

yeh but youve just spend 37 quid on something that i bet i havent spent 36 quid on since i started 10 years ago.

Just because something is cheap doesnt mean you should buy it

Dont buy them then, it's just a bit of helpful info, I got 10 packs about £18, probably last me the rest of my life, if not I will sell them to you for double the price in a couple of years

Always handy to have. I use one to plumb in the hose reel to outside van port and another to plumb the pure feed to the tank from RO to the van port.

The o rings eventually wear and the plastic with constantly plumbing in and out daily and every job.

Offered a worn one to our lass for the allotment to join 2 hoses and it kept popping off every time tap turned on. She wasn't impressed and I was soaked trying to hold both hoses on 😂

Need to clear out all my old hose locks and connectors that have one of the nipples missing etc but I keep "just in case"
