Strange spending paralysis...

Ali-OK

Oh Lynz, what can I say?!

Only to echo that it's an investment. Look after your new garden furniture and you will have years of enjoyment from it - you are buying it once and with money you have. Carpets for your home are an investment for the future returns from selling.

It'll be different if you have children - I won't buy/replace anything for the house until I know it won't get jumped on/spilt on/pushed over/scratched/ broken - so I guess that's when DS leaves home! :rotfl:

Glad to see you managed to buy some of the items you wanted to get Lynz. I know what you mean about spending money, I seem to get tighter with money every day. We have just sold our touring caravan, and have £1500. I would put it all on paying the debt off, but our garden desperately needs doing, so we have put aside half of it for the garden and it is starting to look good already. We also have a holiday coming up and our two upstairs windows are rotting, so we could really do with replacing them. But at least now nothing goes on credit and we look for the best deals. Wouldn't have done that before coming on this site.

Thanks for this thread, I now feel much less guilty about spending nearly £50 on a new suit & a pair of shoes today! My justification is that I haven't bought a suit for work since May 05, I'll wear it to death & it was only £25 plus VAT from Costco. As for the shoes erm :whistle:....actually the lining has gone funny on my old pair & is giving me blisters.

Here's hoping we get a nice summer so you get good value for money from your new garden furniture!

GAH bloody typical

I get home to find some circular from LX direct, giving me £20 off an order over £45. Lo & behold the same set, except comes WITH the parasol for 79.99 in the sale and thus a further £20 off. So saving me a grand total of £35 cos I dont have to buy the parasol either!! AND THEY DO NEXT DAY DELIVERY!! Not by the 8th of may like the woolies one

Needless to say Ive removed my CC details from the woolworths site & emailed them to say I no longer want it- and need to phone them tomorrow

Theres always a better deal round the corner isnt there, :money:

Thanks

Tes,
DId you see which one im getting? Think its a bargain myself... .

Yes, i had a look at it yesterday. Its very nice and a bargain. I have looked a few times but didnt spot that one. But it sounds as if youve got a better bargain now. The money you save will go towards the hammocks. Thank you for your kind words earlier. Luv Tes xxx

does this work now. If not to go the search bit and put in Wooden furniture set. It should come up at 79.99

Gah, the woolies have dispatched it, just checked my emails!! Will have some sorting to do at 9.00am AAArghg

Thanks Lynz, I think you've got a better deal with the other one, there isn't room for all that OS food to be laid out on the LX Direct one as its smaller.
