Not sure if this is the right place but...
After borrowing The Money Diet from my local library (very MSE) and subsequently renewing 3 more times for a total of 12 weeks my library wouldn't let me renew it again, the swines!!
So, yesterday I went on Amazon and bought it.
£5.99 NEW
I had a voucher for £5.00 from a survey site.
Amazon are doing a new Amazon-Prime account atm which is a free one month trial with no obligation to carry on. This means 100's of books are eligible for free next day delivery. :T
Therefore my £5.99 book + £2.75 p+p ended up costing only 99p and I got it this morning!!!

does this make martin a victim of his own success ?The average woman would rather have beauty than brains,
because the average man can see better than he can think.
Many people's view of the world is down to their experience, perception and what they have been conditioned to,this isnt any old MSE reply this is a important and experienced MSE reply :rotfl:0
