I just bought my Dress

And paid under half price *Smug*
Thought I'd share this!! MSE all the way for me. Dress was £650 reduced to £500, told the shop my budget was £300 (it was more
) Whilst wearing the dress (which will need taking in at the bust 
size 10 dress on size 6-8 boobs) haggled the owner down to £300 on the basis I could pay in full there and then! It is perfect :j

Because its a wedding, there really seems to be a 'don't haggle' feel to prices presented, as its my 2nd time around my H2B (1st timer) is gob smacked cos I will ask for discounts on everything :rotfl:Got £500 knocked off venue price and the photographer is £300 for three hours, two photographers and CD (non copywrited) with 150 images
