Picked this up earlier in store (Trongate, Glasgow) but you can also buy it online. It has a "pen" style attachment with pocket clip.

Tommy's Tips No.1 - "don't buy any of the crap endorsed by me at Poundland, since the end of 'Ground force' times have been hard and now I'll put my name to anything if it keeps me in pies" - Mr T Walsh.

I reckon he can probably spell, has a grasp of basic punctuation & grammar and could probably find more deals in 7 years with his eyes closed.

I've had one of those in my kitbag for work for awhile, considering the price it's been invaluable
And given the price I bought a couple of spares too

I agree product endorsement in Poundland will never be admirable, but it's perfect for what I want it for. Boyf has a set too and he uses it often (he has his head in more computers than I do). Assume it'll be good for fiddly things like spectacles etc, as well.

Some of the endorsed stuff is reasonable quality. I particularly like the epoxy in a twin hypodermic container, not a huge amount in tube but very handy and quick setting.

Another "Tommy Walsh" item I bought recently (and might try later - going to stick a glass splashback to a painted wall!) was this Fast Adhesive (super glue and activator). Can't see it on the Poundland site.
can someone share some link for a professional screw driver set to buy. i m unable to find one. most of them r crap.

For general purpose Wera are a solid choice, especially the Kraftform lasertip ones as they have a far better 'bite' than most commercial brands. They are more forgiving of heat and torque so less liable to strip screws or get damaged.
For precision sets Wera or Wiha Precision are good. I myself use a Britool precision set that's been used some fifteen years for watches, laptops and other people's belongings. I'm unsure which kind you need or the budget you have but Amazon have both full sets and individual items. Folkestone Fixings on Ebay is a reliable seller if you prefer shopping there
The cheap shops have been stocking these for months. Definitely seen in 99p stores and I'm pretty sure they've been even cheaper in places like Home Bargains.

I'm all for cheap tools if they last long enough to do the job. But I had a multi bit screwdriver set from this range last week and the torq bit I was using rounded after only 2 screws. I only needed to do 4 screws... It went in the bin. Have seen the light and bought a Halfords Professional set. Not hugely expensive and I'll probably save in the long run from not repeatedly buying junk like the Tommy Walsh range. It is a shame if an otherwise credible man has to put his name to stuff like this.

I'd have thought endorsing a big range of tools at a national store was the easiest payday ever. Everyone knows you're only going to get budget quality at a pound shop so all he gets is a load of (unearned) money and widespread publicity for his 'brand'.

Yes but that doesn't have the Tommy Walsh seal of approval does it? That's got to be worth an extra penny.
Got one of these, it does the job and well worth having around the house for kids toys and glasses fixing, etc.

Its funny, but I can't imagine Tommy Walsh using shyt tools.....or fixing a computer....but good for him making a few bob out of sticking his name on something!

For what they are, they're good products. You pay about the same for unbranded tools from HK or China on eBay and have to wait ages for them to arrive and if there's missing or faulty/misshaped bits you can just go to the shop again.
This mini screwdriver set and the big one in the plastic holder (with 36 bits or however many) are excellent value. They might be softer metal than premium brands but I'm yet to break or wear out any of them.
Don't buy it for the brand, buy it for the product!

Disagree with the above a bit. You can't complain for the price but they are very poor quality. With reference to the mini screwdriver set with loads of bits- I had a tight bolt on a laptop (so not that tight) and the bit stayed stationary whilst the handle just spun around it. Suppose it stopped the bit snapping though.

YMMV - never had an issue, just take it back and replace it, never had any resistance. It's annoying but you could spend £10 on the same tools and still have a loose handle.

To be fair, this isn't a new thing, the case prices have been pretty much the same since the Poundland online store appeared. Think it's mentioned to let customers know they can buy a case if they want to.
