Emergency Snow Shovel - Skean Dhude - 26 October 2013 ASDA are selling a nice foldable snow shovel for £5. It has a spike attachment for taking out the harder chunks as well. It comes in a nice case and although not a solid tool for every day use it certainly will fir the bill for an emergency. I have an identical one I bought off eBay a few years ago for £8 and that one worked fine for those snowy days when you needed to move some snow. RE: Emergency Snow Shovel - bigpaul - 26 October 2013 I noticed last time we were in Tesco's they had the same thing just inside the foyer. I've got an old metal shovel I've used for years, but I suppose one of these plastic ones are ok if you've got nothing else, does what it says on the tin!! RE: Emergency Snow Shovel - Skean Dhude - 26 October 2013 This is a foldable metal one rather than plastic. comes in three bits, the head with the shovel and a spike a handle and a bit to make the handle and head far enough apart to make it useful. RE: Emergency Snow Shovel - bigpaul - 26 October 2013 sorry, my mistake, didn't realise it was metal RE: Emergency Snow Shovel - Skean Dhude - 26 October 2013 Not your fault. I could have said and it would have been clearer. RE: Emergency Snow Shovel - bigpaul - 26 October 2013 I bought a folding shovel in an auction last year, looks a bit like a civilian entrenching tool....it was listed as a spade, I don't think anyone realised what it was, I got it for a fiver!! RE: Emergency Snow Shovel - Straight Shooter - 26 October 2013 Its 7 pm sat ......I,m off up to get 2 now ! Cheep as chips Cheers SD Not in stock yet RE: Emergency Snow Shovel - Controversy - 27 October 2013 If you pool all your resources together (money) you could get the same one from Alibaba.com for a £1. http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/1033246501/2013_new_multi_purpose_foldable_shovel.html Just beg the guy for some samples lol. Thats all I do. I then say. No this is no good. I need better quality but thanks anyway. RE: Emergency Snow Shovel - Dorset Lad - 27 October 2013 If you want something just as light but a good deal stronger then look at the Black Diamond snow shovels. I carry a Deploy 7 in the car throughout the winter and take it with me when hiking in the snow. I know what most of you are going to say, it's nearly £50 quid!!, but you really do get what you pay for. Who wants to be stuck in a snowdrift with a shovel blade in one hand and the handle in the other? Don't take chances with snow, it could be your last chance. RE: Emergency Snow Shovel - uks - 27 October 2013 "its nearly 50 quid" but see your point. |
