I wanna buy it or do it

I have decided to get a miele as they always get good reviews. My dilemma is do I spend an extra £50 to get the cat and dog version, the only difference I can see is it comes with an extra head (turbo brush). Do you own one and if so do you use the turbo brush, is it worth the extra or is is something that just sits in the…

I don't know exactly what boxer briefs are but I am looking for a shop in central london that sells them.. they are apparently like a cross between boxers and briefs. I went to primark with a friend, and saw boxers, briefs, trunks, hipsters, but no boxer briefs. Any idea where in london sells them? I asked in primark and…

Hi All, Looking at new sofas and found a nice one in DFS which suits our needs but the material is 100% Polyesta which according to the sales person is really good for daily use in a house (ours will be going in the lounge). Originally we thought about getting a leather one but now we are unsure which material would be…

To my dismay I find that Wilko has now discontinued one of its more useful products: a bag of 'dry' coco coir peat-free compost that you reconstitute at home using 12 litres of water to make 40 litres of compost, for just £4. They sell a smaller bag - 15 litres for £4, which is rather less impressive in terms of value.…

So I am currently doing a fair bit in my garden to tidy it up & I am wanting to build/make a fire pit. Im planning to dig a fair way down (18 inches) remove the soil, add some stones/gravel for drainage then top up with sand. I have a lot of ordinary bricks in the shed which were left there by the old owner which I thought…

As title suggests, I'm in the process of choosing a sofa from Next, who offer free fabric samples, like most other furnishing companies do. I've been trying to order 2 of these samples, but unlike most other companies, Next for some reason will not let you go through checkout without card details (and also age!!??) I tried…

Hi! How can I pay touching my phone instead of my debit card? Is it always compatible? Is there any fee? Is it secure? I tried to install Google Pay but it says it needs to update Google Play and after doing so it doesn't move on. What's the best alternative? Or Google Pay is the best? Thanks! Btw I use halifax visa.

Can anyone recommend a plug in water heater that stands in cup of water to make tea/coffee in Spain etc? I have one which I bought many years ago and which I have lent to someone last week to take on plane as hand luggage. Seems you can only take a travel kettle if it goes into the hold, which she wasn't using. She has…

Hey guys! I was wondering if I should invest in an expensive pen. Why I name it 'invest' and not 'spend'? -Well, I'm talking about a Montblanc pen. On the one hand, it is not necessary to own or buy such an expensive pen but on the other hand, it looks very classy. Even though we live in 2018, it is still a status symbol,…

I am looking for a decent shed around 5x8 or 5x7 Pent Overlap Pressure Treated Shed. Can anyone recommend a decent company that makes quality without piling on the £££ ? Possible cashback would be a bonus too. Thanks.

I'm sure that it's been asked before, but I can't find a relevant thread. My toaster has given up. It's not worth fixing, and like most toasters, you couldn't put a full sized slice of bread in it properly. I've decided that my next toaster is to be one that fits a standard sized piece of bread in it (Warburton's Toastie…

We bought a Sensaform Memory Active 6000 Mattress from Bensons for Beds. We've had an Ikea mattress for a while and find it too firm. We also tried one of the bed in a box mattresses and found it too firm too. We bounced on a few in Ikea, Dreams and Bensons for Beds and found the Sensaform in Bensons was the only one we…

Hi all, We are considering buying 2 x Sonos play 1 speakers. Can anyone tell me what type of plug for the mains they have - is it a normal sized one or an oversized transformer type one? I've asked on other places, but can't seem to find out. Thanks in advance.

I'm thinking of getting an adult scooter (push along) for the school run so we can all scoot together. Obviously, the main brands are super expensive, while no name brands are really cheap on sites like Amazon. So I'm not sure which one to get. I tried a £60 and a £130 one from the same brand - Oxelo - in my local…

There are some VERY good deals on furniture at House of Fraser. But with everything that's going on in the news in the last couple of days, is it safe to order, say, sofa's from there which may take a few weeks to arrive? I will pay on credit card for added safety. But what if they go belly-up before my goods arrive?

I am looking for some factor 30+ sunscreen, but don''t want to pay 5/6 quid for a bottle a time, so are there any places you could recommend who sell reasonably priced sunscreen? Official MoneySavingExpert insert Tue 24 Apr: If you're willing to ditch the brands you know, you could get sun cream for £1. See MSE Rhiannon's…

I've been looking today to buy a replacement pair of running shoes for a pair of New Balance I have that is discontinued. They still appear on a few sites - but the names of these sites seem to be deliberately constructed so as to NOT be able to search reviews of them on Google etc (the search algorithm breaks it down to…
