There's 20% off a few decent things in Evans, I don't know how
this compares with other sources. But gift horses etc.

A quick look shows that the Evans voucher brings their prices, after the
discount, into line with everyone else ... and don't get me started on why
the CTC ever let Evans have their "club shop" deal........

OTOH I recently bought some campy shifters and rear mech. I price
checked wiggle against parkers (parkers were cheaper) only to find that
the ctcshop had them at the same price (before the members discount) as
parkers meaning that I could have saved an extra GBP8. The Evans
branded site also has them at the same price as parkers (but without
the possibility of a discount) so whilst I agree that Evans are usually
not cheap it is not a universal truth
