    I have a quandary (nice one though)

    I bought a jigsaw from a charity shop for the grand total of £1.75 last month (haven't got round to doing it yet but will) - it's one of a set of about four based on Terry Pratchett.

    Thought I'd look on ebay to see whether the others were reasonably easy to get hold of......the one I bought has just gone for £11.50:eek: PLUS about £4.00 postage.......

    hmm....so once I've done it do I keep it or not..........:confused:

    Are you likely to want to do it again later? If not sell it, if you feel bad you could always donate a bit of the money to charity?

    Sell it !! Thats not a quandry thats easy lol !!! You aint gonna do it again once its done are you and theres a nice little profit in that so you can treat yourself to something else. I would definitely sell it! I would also be on the look out for more of them at charity shops and boot fairs too lol !!

  • It was a new one, only bought it a few weeks ago & she loves it so really don't think it was done on purpose but she is very untidy which annoys my 2yo who is the tidy up freak (seriously!) in the house. At least it's found now.

    pmsl !! my 3 year old is tidier than my 8 year old too !!! although the 8 year old used to be really tidy, almost anal about it actually, relatives used to comment on his room and how he had a place for everything and hated things being messy. How things have changed as hes grown up !!! He has so much stuff out at a time and apparantly hes playing with it all, yeh right ! and clothes just sort of end up where they land after hes taken them off and would stay there forever I guess if I didnt nag him !
    Thanks to all posters and contributers :beer:
  • Right I need to make sure I have done all the comps I want to do today now cos I am off out this afternoon. Its today that OH won those VIP Chart Show tickets. We have to be at Koko Camden before 3pm. Am very excited about seeing Starsailer perform live. We get to meet the bands too I think and Sara Cox who is hosting, we get free drinks and OH is going to get some CD's and shockwave hair products in the post too, result !! Hopefully it will be a great afternoon / evening out anyway despite the weather being gloomy and wet out there today.

    Anyway I just wanted to send my love and thoughts to Stressed for today, hope all goes well hunni, will be checking back here tommorrow to see how it went, good luck though xxxxxx.

    I managed to get my shopping delivered ok last week, they rang in advanced and said they may run late, but I didnt care as long as they delivered. Hope it comes. I did pop into Tescos end of last week and they were reducing loads of top quality meat as it was not selling, filled my freezer up so dont need much this week:j
