I think I'm going mad :rotfl:
Out shopping for bedroom furniture at weekend and came across a lovely mirrored 'thing'. It was an 8in round mirror with an inch side which was made out of silver hearts joined together and would have made a gorgeous centre piece with my pebbles and a candle or anything really, was lovely. It was only £2.99 but because there was only 1 I didn't buy it.
I'm now driven to distraction because I didn't buy it and think I need to go back to the shop just to see if it's still there and buy the thing! Would be lovely even just for the B & G's table.

Yes! Not wedding related, but a couple of weeks ago I saw some nice Barrats leather boots reduced to £28 from £75.
I um'd & ah'd for a few days, then when I finally went to buy them, the price had changed to £50.
So I’d inadvertently missed a glitch

I do it all the time probably because I tend not to impulse buy but mull over my day later and decide I should have bought whatever...it usually leads me having to go back to the shop in the hope the item is still there.
I did it last week with something that wasnt in stock when I went back but when I mentioned to the man in the shop that I was gutted they didnt have it in he offered to order me one...so I came away happy...perhaps go back to the shop and see if they can order any more of the mirrors....you may be lucky...frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!

Ha I was going to say the same Rainbow - my 'damn-should-have-bought-that' tends to be footwear related!!

My Aunties motto is
'If you see it and you like it, buy it'*
You can nearly alwasy return something if you get buyers remorse, but you cant get them to magic up another dress in that style if it's sold out when you go back.

yeah an im really kicking myself
went into bhs with my mum and saw 2 handbags that had been reduced to £2.50 each which would have been perfect for my flowergirls. I hadnt bought their dresses at that point, i went home, saw their dresses and ordered them and then realised the bags were a perfect match. Went back the next day, they had gone and i have looked everywhere on t'interweb and having no joy finding them :mad:Married my amazing hubby on 8th September 2012 :j:j0 -

Why not give him a camera on your wedding eve, and let him be in charge of the boudoir photo shoot instead
