I've got a Screwfix voucher for 10% off.

You do have to spend over £30 to get the discount. The voucher says 'Order over £30' so I don't need to buy a single item.

Ideas for what would you buy please?

I would put it towards my radiators, which I still haven't bought.

Or buy spare lamps for my kitchen as they keep blowing and are £13 each! I have 12.

I'd spend it on something that I've always wanted but never quite managed to find in the shops. A tube of hammer grease, a set of left-handed screwdrivers, or a can of tartan paint. Or maybe a bag of bubbles for the spirit level. Oh, and four candles, obviously.

Seriously, if I didn't already have them in my house, I'd splash out on a proper 45 metre cable reel (https://www.screwfix.com/p/masterplug-h ... 240v/47295) or one of their truly wonderful wet and dry vacuums (https://www.screwfix.com/p/titan-ttb351 ... 240v/56239). Don't know how I ever lived without them.

We've got the smaller and cheaper wet-and-dry vacuum - https://www.screwfix.com/p/titan-ttb350vac-1300w-16ltr-wet-dry-vacuum-cleaner-240v/36516

Fantastic bit of kit - almost indestructible, and a dream bit of equipment for any DIY'er who likes to make a mess...

Heartily agree, also get a couple of these pipecuuters https://www.screwfix.com/p/rothenberger ... tter/36198 and https://www.screwfix.com/p/rothenberger ... tter/24477
They'll save you the emergency call out fee to a plumber if a pipe bursts or a joint is damaged, cut at the break and end cap. Those particular cutters can be used in installed plumbing even with pipe right next to the wall.

Ideas for what would you buy please?

Gaffer tape
A hammer
WD40

Then I'm sorted for any eventuality.

Definitely: my bacon was saved by 15mm stop-ends many years ago when I was using a pipe-freezer kit that unexpectedly had a blockage in the freeze-fluid department.

My other 'must-have' would be a head-torch. I use one of Screwfix's Elwis torches - £29.99 at the moment and worth every £.

I carry these about with me all over the place as part of my "emergency kit" for when I next hammer a floorboard nail through a water pipe or get too exuberant with my multitool when cutting through a floorboard over unseen pipes. C.
