Debate House Prices


In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non MoneySaving matters are no longer permitted. This includes wider debates about general house prices, the economy and politics. As a result, we have taken the decision to keep this board permanently closed, but it remains viewable for users who may find some useful information in it. Thank you for your understanding.

in Debate House Prices & the Economy
Forum when viewed on an iPhone, the forum pages here are a bit of a mess with countless uninteresting crap down the sides which takes a while to load on 3G. It's messy and has been the same for years, it needs sorting.
Have owned outright since Sept 2009, however I'm of the firm belief that high prices are a cancer on society, they have sucked money out of the economy, handing it to banks who've squandered it.

    I find that usually makes up most of the content to be honest.

    It's MSE... a money saving site. First piece of advice is: dump the expensive hardware.

    I've not seen an iPhone yet.

    The software for that takes some investing in. It's a testament to how much Fubra makes from exploiting the poor unwitting tin-foil-hatters that think it's some kind of underground community instead of the commercial money machine it clearly is.

    Normally I would agree PN, however iPhone and other mobile devices are very good for keeping upto date when on the move.

    Only mugs with too much money get an iPhone. Android all the way.

    I often wonder whether the likes of yourself, Hamish etc would feel the same and have the same attitude if you were a young FTBr, somehow I doubt.
