Pound shops - Are they worth it?
I bought a pack of AA batteries a month ago, they've leaked inside the remote control & the clock. At the same time I bought a pack of screwdriver bits for an electric screwdriver, the metal was so soft they were all worn out putting together one set of bedside cabinets. Not impressed - false economy.

House Prices - using rateable value as a guide
In Northern Ireland we don't have a register of actual sold prices. Over on the HPC NI forum they are adamant that the best guide to use is the 2005 rateable value figure and buyers should be aiming for RV -10% to -20%.
