    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'

    I bought an apple once at Tescos, when I got it home it had what looked like teethmarks on the skin, I ate it anyway, do you think it was second hand, could I get my money back?

    There was a program on tv in the summer about scams for electrical items, think it was even Martin Lewis himself that did the program.

    Basically, a shop shows you a top of the range camera at a great price, they go in the back to get your new boxed up camera, you really get a cheap camera in the box.

    Very hard to take it back to the shop and prove otherwise after the purchase has been made and you have left the shop.

    Admittedly this was about foreign holiday scams I think, but I would still bear this in mind.


    the program your thinking of is the real hustle,

    That actually happened to me! Bought a £200 MP3 player, got it home, box was empty! :eek:

    Did they believe you when you returned the empty box to the shop?

    This reminds me off the other thread about the Toshiba Blu-ray player.
