abwsco Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I had the opposite of a bargain . Had a few things in my Amazon basket since before Xmas as they weren't surprises and I thought they probably wouldn't arrive in time anyway. Ordered them a few days ago and they've all arrived. I noticed today that the weather station I bought for myself has gone down to half the price I paid . On the plus side, I got YS a jacket in the sales reduced to £30 from £60 . ANH, I'm sure Amazon will honour the lower price if you contact them. Sure I've seen it either on their website or MSE. BTW, which one was it as I'm after one. I got three fleeces and a nice coat from the Regatta outlet. Cost me £50 in total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used to have a price promise,which I used regularly,but they stopped doing this earlier this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlottechicken Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 I had a birthday treat today doing what I don't like doing (shopping), and treated myself to 4 tops all half price from BHS . Also got a few bits and bobs from M&S for free as I have loads of vouchers (they have some lovely wellington boot keyrings) Then bought a lovely big basket from the charity shop for £3 for my logs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAJ Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Took daughter into Republic - she tried on 6 items and bought 5 - in totally £67, original prices added up to £157!

Eggasperated Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Went to Edinburgh with my OH today, he bought a new suit with £100 off and a Marco Polo Anorak reduced from £250 ( ) to £100 because of a loose thread. All I bought was some Xmas cards reduced to 75p and some full price tops from M & S . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daphne Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 We went to a sales outlet place near us yesterday as I needed some salopettes - got some half price, and a base layer as well for £10, hurrah The effect of this penny-pinching was slightly ruined by OH who fell for some good quality steak knives for £30, which I can't pretend we desperately need, but they are in a lovely box, all heavy and shiny and sharp, begging to be used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Yeurghhhhhhhh! Sales!!!!!!!!! Hate shopping at the best of times! Last time I went to one was because OH needed work shoes and stuff. Kind of had a panic attack and ran out of the shoe shop - tooooo crowded! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus €40.00 off a brand new, genuine black M65 jacket, (been trying to get one for a while) and two pairs of camouflage trousers for €18.00 handy for working in the garden.
