    I hate it when companies do that......don't they ever check anything?!

    Wouldn't mind either, but rene posted about that ring a few days ago and they've only just cottoned on now? Wouldn't you think they would do the decent thing and let people have it for £9.50. It was one ring and one size only, can't see that hurting their profits!

    You've got ages to get rings yet! Have a look in the January sales, I'm sure you'll find something there for both of you for not too much xx

    I read about this deal on HUKD and someone there said they rang customer services to check and they couldnt see a problem and as far as they knew it was correct.

    Was a couple of days since I read the thread so I may have got it wrong but I know there was alot of talk about it being a mis-price and what happens if they realise.
    2010 is the year of bargain shopping! Time to money save, exercise and plan! I like to keep busy :)
