Poundland price rise!
No not more than a £1, less for your £1. Bacon used to be 6 slices now 5. Soup, 2 for a £1, now 3 for £2. (that's a big increase!) Vegetable oil was 1lt now 750 ml. (that's probably due to the drivers of Chelsea tractors buying it to fuel their gas guzzlers!!) Sugar used to be 1.1/2 kg, now 1.25kg. (Which means if you can…

Using a Telephone Whilst Driving
This is routine for so many ,particularly professional drivers. What seems to be overlooked is those stupid ba5tard5 who decide to stop to take/make a call apparently wherever they happen to be. This week alone I encountered one who had stopped sock on a pelican crossing and , amazingly, another on a blind steep uphill…

Premier Inn Complaints Contact? Anyone got one?
Preferably not a phone number please. Postal address will be fine. Email will be fine. I had an issue with Travelodge a year or so ago & someone was able to provide an email address here on MSE & it helped a lot. Stayed with Premier Inn once before & they were fine. Just stayed again this week & it was quite awful, so i'd…

Conservatory Steel Bases Ltd (CSB) & singlestoryextensions (SSE)
Early last year I posted warnings (see previous posts) about the above Company and our unpleasant experiences with them. They still have our £1850 deposit with no work done on the ground. While we would almost certainly win our case in court, we are unlikey to recover the judgement against the Co. because they have no…

Tesco Fishmonger
Yesterday I went to the fish counter to buy a whole Sea Bass, firstly I was ignored by the only guy working that counter for about 5mins whilst he chopped up some salmon - he had his back to the shop. He called one of the other staff members from the butcher part who flatly refused to come over and serve me, by now a few…

Deal or no deal
Why do people get all emotional on this darn program? Lets put this in to perspective now - it's effectively a game of luck!! If the higher value boxes go then surely you knew the risk when you damn well applied for the program? so stop crying! - it's not your money your playing with, so if you go home with anything above…

Praise for Dunelm Mill
I emailed the Dunelm Mill Customer Services with a bit of a rant about a newly opened store where reserve and collect did not function and also reordered online. Item arrived promptly and they have remitted the delivery costs. Not every chain is all out for profit.:T

Rated Rubbish.com

Vent: Postage and packaging prices
I'm hunting around for Mother's Day pressie ideas at the moment and cannot believe the amount of P&P businesses charge. These are small businesses I'm looking at and I know times are tough but, as an example: For a 0.75p card one business wants £2.95 P&P! For a £3.00 bar of soap another business wants the same again in…

Thumbs up for my local CEX store
Went into CEX today for a DVD of Thor (I love that film!) for £8 and saw that they still had the Season 2 of True Blood for £12 that I saw last month and couldn't afford then. Lovely chatty guys on the tills, we were talking about Thor and I asked advice on a PS2 I want to trade in/sell. Then he tells me that the total is…
