iS IT WORTH ME HAGGLING FOR A BETTER DEAL

staceydaisy

I currently pay £37.00 a month for m+ package and sky sports.

I know other people who get the L package and sky sports for same price.

Should I haggle to see if I can get a better deal I have no phone line and no broadband with them just the TV

Nothing to loose

Or lose!

I'm with Sky, and pay £70 per month which is all channels except movies, unlimited broadband, and sky talk.

I phoned Orange to ask what they would offer to encourage me not to switch - they offered halving the price, with the next 6 months free! No brainer

Lose vs Loose:p

A lot of people are mixing up lose and loose. In particular, a lot of people are writing loose when they really mean lose. Here are the definitions of the two words from my Penguin dictionary:

loose [lOOs] adj not fastened or pre-packed; not tied up or confined; able to move freely; not tight, not firmly fixed; not close-fitting; careless, inaccurate, vague; dissolute, immoral; not closely woven; flabby; (of bowels) inclined to diarrhoea; l. box stable or van in which an animal can move about; at a l. end uncertain what to do next; unoccupied ~ loose adv in a loose way; play fast and l. behave rashly or unscupulously ~ loose n release; on the l. free from restraint; on a spree; ~ loose v/t untie, undo; release from confinement or constraint, set free; detatch; fire (gun); shoot (arrow); (eccles) absolve.

lose (p/t and p/part lost) [lOOz] v/t and i no longer have; be deprived of by accident or misfortune; mislay, fail to find; fail to get or win; be too late for; be bereaved of; waste; be defeated or beaten; suffer loss, become worse off; fail to hear, see or understand; cause or allow to perish; (of clock or watch) go too slowly; (refl) miss the right path; become absorbed in; l. one's head become flustered, panic; l. one's temper grow angry; l. one's way fail to find the right path; l. out (US) be defeated after a struggle.
