Do B&Q Price Match their own items?
I know that I am clutching at straws here but worth asking anyway. A couple of weeks ago I purchased an outdoor table and chair set (new season) from B&Q. I did manage to get the Wednesday 10% discount so I was quite pleased really. Annoyingly, I see that the item is now being sold for £100 less. I did ask the assistant at…

Shoe resoling
Just went to get a pair of leather shoes resoled and reheeled and was quoted £53. Am shocked, last time I got this done I think it was only about £20. This is in London so perhaps it's cheaper elsewhere. Anyway is this now the going rate or is there a way to get it done more cheaply? Thanks

Anybody bought from Licorea?
Has anybody bought from this site before, it offers discount alcohol from mainland Europe. I'm not sure how it works though, legally. I saw it referenced on another forum. http://www.licorea.com/ It looks legit enough, based in Spain. Needless to say, buying in bulk shouldn't mean bulk consumption of booze! A litre bottle…

GOOD black socks
Hello everybody I don't like having to pair socks, so I try to buy them all the same. I buy them in Primark, the cheapest bunch there is, but they are awful and they break too easily. I know there are better options because I remember a batch a few years ago that lasted AGES. I think it was in H&M. These are my…

A bribe to remove a negative Amazon review
I recently purchased a piece of IT equipment from a seller on Amazon. I was unhappy with it and consequently left a two star review for the item on Amazon a few days later. My complaint was not due to a malfunction but because the item was described as "silent" but its normal operation is clearly anything but silent. I did…

amazon prime - no rush delivery
I am no longer being offered the £1 music/video credit for no rush delivery :( shame as I found these credits useful. Instead I now get 2.99 amazon pantry credit.

Company says payment received but it's still in my bank!
I placed an order for a relative with a meat company on the 29th for £55. This showed as pending in my internet banking immediately but the next day it disappeared from the pending payments and my account was showing it as credit. I waited a few days and the payment still wasn't taken. Today I received confirmation that my…
