Clark's formal shoes dillemma
I bought a pair of size 8 shoes from Clark's. On their website, you had to choose extra wide fit or you could not add it to the cart. Now, 2 months after the shoes arrived, I went to wear them for work and found that these are actually the size of a 8.5 even though size 8 is plastered everywhere. Clarks' have refused to…

Are mug warmers worth it?
Has anybody ever used a temperature-controlled mug warmer to help stop your tea/coffee/[insert other warm beverage] from going cold while you work, or reheat it when you inevitably get distracted? We don't have a microwave (and since it's a cardinal sin to reheat one's tea in there anyway!), so looking for a good mug…

Save money on clothing?
I don't buy many clothes but when I do it's expensive. I can't go shopping as my toddler won't let me 😂 so I buy online or in Sainsburys before work. Not a lot of choice for this fussy person. I looked into 2nd hand but I'm concerned it's just as expensive and things won't last long as new? I usually buy new…

Paper doilies - who sells them?
You'd think they'd be sold all over the place BUT I find no reference to them on any supermarket site or places like Poundland and B&M. Has anyone seen them for sale anywhere recently?

Bread machine recommendations please
My old bread machine is no longer performing. It sounds like mice being tortured (not good in an open plan home) and sometimes leaves black marks in the dough. I have being trying to find a twin paddle machine as I like to bake a decent sized loaf. I did get a single paddle machine on Freecycle but it made a very deep,…

Can anyone recommend or advise which Heated body Warmer to buy
I want to buy one of the body warmers which is heated by a battery pack. Its a Christmas present for someone who is not very mobile and needs to sit around a lot.

Curry’s Trade In Allowance
I saw they were offering money off for trading in used tech (personally hadn’t seen it before, so I assumed is a recent addition). I think it said you may get more than it’s worth. I put in my 18 month old laptop because I was mulling over upgrading. The offer was £15. Wonder if anyone had any successes using this scheme.

Mattress advice needed!
Hi, Does anyone have any recommendations for a good quality mattress company who will deliver, and importantly, take away the old mattress too? It would be for a double mattress. I'm not sure what a competitive price would be for this... All advice welcome, Thanks! H

Rebate / refund on Sodastream gas cylinders?
Hi all, wasn’t sure where to post this. I have a Sodastream that I don’t really use so I was going to sell it or give it away.

Anyone recommend a good washing machine with maximum depth of 50 cm?
I have a kitchen which only allows space for a washing machine of maximum (safe) dimensions: H 84 x W 64 x D 50 cm. I have had good experience in the past with Beko machines and honestly prefer a cheap and cheerful machine with simple programmes over a very complicated machine. I mainly just use the everyday/short cycle or…

Electric fitted single oven recommendations?
We've just had our Neff oven virtually give up the ghost between one day and the next after only six years moderate use - so, safe to say we won't be getting that brand again, or any other premium brand, for that matter... Could anyone recommend a moderate price oven they bought and have been using for a reasonable time,…
