Long-lasting tights

Fiona Philips has turned out to be a money-saving expert extraordinaire.

She claims to have been wearing the same pair of satin Wolford tights for 20 years :eek:

They are 30 quid a pop mind you, but still - 20 years :eek:

Does she qualify for a prize?

Her tights do - for best-supporting :rotfl:

    I had exactly the same tights in the 80s and they lasted about 5 years for me and that was with a lot of wear:D I bought the Sock Shop version at the time and they were nothing compared to the Wolford ones but 20 years is good going:eek: I wanted to buy another pair this year but havent got round to it yet, tbh I'm looking for a bargain or a code before I part with my cash I would probaby get more wear out of them this time as I dont wear skirts etc that much any more, there do seem to be certain products that its better in the long run to buy expensive/good quality - go Fiona!:rotfl:
    Thank you for this site Martin
    The time for change has come
    Good luck for the future

    Wolford eh?

    I may have to look into this as it doesn't seem to matter what high street brand I buy from, they always seem to rip whether from Primark or M&S! Could try Wolford though next time I am feeling flush; thanks for the tip!
