Yes, I know the money they pay help support this site but still, that dam pop up is really, really irritating, and if anything, puts me off Halfords!

    The frequency needs adjusting.  It's triggered almost every single visit, no matter how close the visits are chronologically.

    You're not going to increase the conversion rate by repeating the pop-up several times per day, to exactly the same visitior, you're more likely going to decrease it.
