Four pairs of virtually brand new jeggings from M&S £5 each. All in autumn colours.

At this rate I will want for nothing and never have to buy from a full price shop.

If they'd been in my size we would have been fighting over them.

If you do the quiz on this page and get all the answers right, you'll be sent a sachet of Tech Wash you can use. You can have as many goes as you want with the quiz so don't despair if you get one wrong, just start again.

It'll take a couple of weeks for the sachet to arrive though.

Thank you very much for this link. I've just gone through it and am expecting some techwash soon. Perfect for my slightly grubby and well loved waterproof jacket.

From my local chazza this week - a sound system - Marantz turntable, tuner, amp, cassette deck, with a Denon CD player and Wharfedale speakers! It turned out to have a couple of issues, particularly that the cassette deck is sticking, but my OH is a sound engineer and will sort it out. Still a bargain, though, as he tells me that model of CD player alone would be more online than the £30 I paid for the entire system!
I'll be able to listen to my vinyl and cassettes as well as CDs - and transfer them to the PC as well!

This is really weird, but I bought some non-refundable jeggings for £6.99 from M&S last year and found the fit far too tight for the size. (They were brown leather "look", so not the greatest loss to my wardrobe ).

It still had the tag on, so I schwopped it for a £5 off £35 voucher from Oxfam and bought a lovely smart handbag with it in the Christmas sale, which was reduced to 1/2 price. Expensive but v good quality

I said to OH that we could do with a butter dish and a few days later spotted one in the charity shop for 60p:money:
Got it home and discovered the reason it was probably in the charity shop - it's too small for a standard block of butter :rotfl:
I have visions of it doing the rounds of the charity shops for months :rotfl::D

Well I am on a chazzer shop downer.

I saw a lovely John Rocha hoodie for hubby right size nearly brand new perfect everything but £10. At the time I was thinking "youre joking not at that price" that was on Tuesday.

Today I told hubby about it and the reply was "oh you didn't get it?" so I rushed round to the chazzer and of course not there. Hence my downer I think I am addicted to chazzer shopping if it's affecting me this way and always looking for the next bargain hit.

What do you think time to call it a day?
