After a year of owning a house I've decided I can't go on borrowing my parents drill every few weeks ;)

I know from a previous thread that there are a lot of cordless options at the £100 mark but can I save money by going corded? The most demanding task will be putting up shelves in the garage (brick).

Many thanks
 
What's your budget, drill below, very good.

Bosch PSB Corded Hammer Drill - 650W. has reverse, hammer, etc.
Drilling capacity for wood 30mm, steel 12mm, masonry 14mm, concrete 14mm and metal 12mm.

Argos has special offer on, where you get drill plus Bosch 34 Piece X-Line Classic Drill and Screwdriver Bit Set for £74.
Drill has two year warranty.

That looks good actually, I hadn't thought of checking argos. My parents have a Bosch which has been running for years so I'm sure that will be up to the job :)
 
Thanks all. I went with the argos option above with drill set. It's seems like a nice bit of kit, very happy.
 
I went into homebase yesterday and saw the model above mine, 750w I think, on offer plus the 20% off. That would have made it £60 with a more extensive drill set. Doh!
 
I mention that in my post No 5, about Homebase & the Bosch PSB 750 RCE at same price, but I was unaware of the further 20% discount available this weekend.

20% voucher on web site referred to garden, outdoors, decorating & flooring, tiling, made no mention of tools, sorry.

But I think store have their own promotions as well.

Ah I think you're right, it probably didn't include tools :)
