As BC members you will have seen that you can get 10% off at wiggle.
I priced some bits at wiggle the other day and its came £31.77. Then i remembered the 10% off. So i went to the BC website and re-did the order via them and the total cost was £31.77.

Would any other BC member with 5 minutes to kill fancy pricing up some kit via both sites. Would be interesting to see if my results were a one off or not.

The discount does work, but it is discount against the un-discounted price. So if Wiggle discount something to 10% already, then you get the same price. If it is discounted to 5% then you can get an extra 5%, etc.

I have definitely saved a few pence in the past, though I haven't ordered anything there for a while.

Think it's the same for CTC members via the Wiggle/CTC shop, as gary said it's discount on non-discounted stuff (if that makes sense)

And, yes, if I go via the BC site, I get the 12% discount shown.
