There was a story in my local paper a few years ago about a man who did just that! He kept returning to all the Homebase stores in the area, taking a large sample each time from the same type of wallpaper. He wallpapered his whole lounge with them - he was an extremely skilfull painter and decorater by trade and managed to patch the pieces together with barely a join showing. He made the front page!

Errr, I know people who have done this. NOT me, I don't eat breakfast (now there's moneysaving, lol). Nah, I just get nauseous and lethargic if I eat in the morning....:p0 -
My boss doesn't use the toilet at his home - he comes into work at 0630, has a p00 then goes back home at 0700 - seriously!
Problem is when everyone else gets in the building stinks.
My ex boss was the same!!! Always in ultra early...and wondered why people moaned when the first floor used to ming to high heaven..he always denied it...until the Uber Boss was waiting outside the loo one morning....and we hoped that would stop him ... but....did it heck!!!!
All these years since I left school and I've never once had to use Algebra0
