most annoying, Comet could not be beaten

My wife went out shopping without me :mad: but with a friend of hers.

They went into Comet and my wife was persuaded to buy an item by the display on the shelf:eek:.

She brought it home and after I had recovered from the shock :eek:of her buying something from Comet without me being there and without first checking on the internet to see if it was cheaper I searched online for the item.

I was shocked:eek: I could not find it any cheaper:mad:.

My whole life has been shattered, Comet cheaper than the internet:confused::eek:

What can I do?:o who can I sue for compensation?
How could she buy something without me being there? and from Comet:eek:

And she was even able to bring it home and use it within an hour of buying it. Whatever happened to ordering online and waiting weeks for your order to appear?

I'm off to the pub to drown my sorrows:beer: after I've had my tea.

Made in this new purchase:mad:
