Getting home from a huge ride completely exhausted, and seeing a delivery of bike parts...immediately deciding that the free Haribo within would go perfectly with a bath and mug of tea.

Then the moment of worry when you realise you changed your order to chainreactioncycles to use the £5 voucher, but you reassure yourself that its fine, they are the same company now, same stock levels, same prices. Same Haribo.

Nah. Nothing. Just boring bike bits and no confectionary. The next best thing (cheddar and pickled beetroot sarnie is just not cutting it) 🙁

venture capital fascists don't **** about with haribo, unless they use them to tempt children into their sweatshops

Spooky, I sympathise and feel your pain 😉

I basically view buying from Wiggle as purchasing a comedy sized pack of extremely expensive Haribo with some free bike gear thrown in for good measure.

Now here's a thought: has anyone ever sent their order back along with the little pack of Haribo...UNOPENED????

@joebristol, I’m sad to report an order o received from tredz this week had no haribo, I checked twice and shook the Jiffy bag out twice and looked inside again,
It was a sad day, although I do love the £5 off £30 spend can’t remember an order not using one

Doesn’t taste as good if you have to buy your haribo

Well I opened up my ratbite tyre inserts and was pleasantly surprised to find a pack of Haribo, until my children walked in and confiscated them!

Wiggle don’t always include haribo either. Have made large orders and got none yet made a small order just after and got some. Its just more often than not did once get some pre-rode coffee with haribo and that was really good
