My grandchildren are so used to their mum buying things with sale labels on that they will take things to her in the shop and ask for it and push the fact that it has the vital red sale label on it. They truely believe that she will not say no if it in the sale, they are very probably right!!!!!

so much restraint! I have to say, in my defence m'lud, i do really go for bargains, i can hear a pricing gun from several aisles away and my shopping trolly is usually full of b.o.g.o.f.s also clothes and house wise i do go for good prices, rarely do i buy full priced, also do my research on internet before i make major purchases.

its just husbands i can't sem to get right(H.G being the exception of course although we're only dirty sinners )

Maybe going for bargains would make you spend more Buying as many things you can grab that are reduced

well..... i have to say when i sorted out my wardrobe, there were a lt of 'bargains' that were either unworn, or worn once or twice, actually making them distinctly 'unbargain' like!the charity shop did very well!

It is a fact that the word "shop" is derived from the ancient Minoan word for "Temple of Satan". Hell will freeze over! Rugby Matt will be lost for words! Lynxxa will become her neighbour's bessie mate. I will be heard to say "What a nice chap that David O'Leary is".. and all of this before anything remotely connected to shopping becomes bearable to me. Do you guys realise how much stress I endure having to think up new ruses to keep her mind off the ever increasing list of shopportunities she keeps coming across....I thought El Corte in Gandia was a challenge but now.......AAAAaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrggghhh
HG (the G is a little closer to "Greyness" now!!)

hi HG howare you?

have to admit I was a bit worried about a 4am post til I read it was from you

I'm afraid not, I fear he will always be.......ginger.

sadly....yes.

You love him whatever he is.........don't give me that!

El Corte in Gandia........no sweat....no problema at all but Bonaire in Valencia......serious sweat, heart attack in the offing.......grande problema.

Suggest you cancel all plans of moving to Spain unless you can successfully tie up the money to stop Silverchick spending or failing that you will need to incapacitate her in some way to stop her having the ability of going there.

Good to see a post from you, welcome to the forum.

tee hee!!I'd love him even more if he was less.....orange!!

Please don't encourage him to tie me up!!!

Being a man he needs no encouragement.

I often argued with my ex wife, that coming home with a 'bargain' which was £30 off the original price was only a bargain if she needed it, and would actually wear or use it, so many times that 'bargain' finished up at the back of the wardrobe having NEVER been worn.
