Really need to go to bed now, but needing advice. I am not an impulse buyer, I like to know how much things are and shop around, but today with OH in tow we spot a hotpoint condenser tumble dryer in b&q on clearance down from £319 to £159 + £20 delivery. My tumble dryer has been tripping out, so he of course tells me to just buy it.
When I am home and checking my bargain, which I can of course change my mind about. I find that nowhere seems to be selling it for more than £229. Now it is still cheaper, but I feel a bit mislead by their original price and can't help but feel if I had waited, I could have maybe got a better one. I like the ones that look like washing machines, not the ones with big white doors, like this one. But I suppose I am just being fussy and all that.
I don't want to upset the OH, but he doesn't do the washing.

Last week I had to buy a new washing machine as the bearings went, got a great one on comet clearance for less than the tumble dryer..only £176 delivered and old one taken away. Which is £269 new online and it is immaculate, so pleased with it.

I really don't know whether to cancel the order completely or not. Better sleep on it I suppose.

Anyone on twitter/facebook etc help share the awful news that 5 year old April Jones has gone missing from Machynlleth, Wales. Hopefully she will be found safe and quickly.

This is very worrying. Far more more important than APGs. Let's all hope that she is found safe soon.

I've tried to search the forum but every time I try to type in the search box it disappears (ruddy phone). Would anyone know if the Jordans Raspberry clusters compare please? I've tried the *ahem* one-stop-shop list but no mention of it.

Thank you.

The "search this thread" and "jump to page" boxes disappear on my iphone when I type anything in either of them for the first time. If I type into them a second time then both work

Just went off to read some reviews and stuff, so it might be ok. Probably the shock of spending so much money in short space of time with a few BS orders chucked in too. :rotfl:

Goodnight to whoever is still around, gotta be up at 7am, will regret this in the morning.

Out of interest, is anyone else keeping track of how much they are spending on this glitch? I ask as I did a few sums this evening and was surprised how much I have actually spent - what with starting off without an APG voucher for a few shops, messing a few up where items (or the whole shop due to messing up ) didn't match, and the difference between the APG voucher and overall spend due to fillers etc. Even a few pounds each time mounts up and I find generally either I stick with the voucher value, but the next one is lower value, or I spend more than the voucher to get a higher APG next time, in which case I have spent more up front again.

When you consider some of this is stuff that I wouldn't normally buy (so variations on cleaning products, more exotic choice of cereals, more expensive toothpastes etc) and the amount of time/petrol etc, I am beginning to question how much I am actually saving . A bargain is only a bargain if it is something that you would normally buy but cheaper :A.

That said, I don't think that we will need to buy any toothpaste, cereal or cleaning products for a while ... :cool:.

I keep a spreadsheet of cost, what bought and when, so I use it all in proper rotation, I have a spreadsheet for pretty much everything! :rotfl:

In the whole of my September glitching, I spent £101.05 on 177 various toiletry items (approx. 57p per item), £25.34 on 50 various cleaning products/underjams (approx. 51p per item) and £ 5.96 on a total 20.75 litres of Robinson's squash (approx. 29p per litre)........

I consider that a pretty good deal :D:D Betcha no-one can beat THAT detailed a breakdown!!!

(not including about £20 of ballsed-up shops )

Forgetful

Kadison... I just dont know how u keep that organised... Im having a headache trying to put the stuff away!!1

It's easy, every time I post up my APG results, I copy and paste them into an excel spreadsheet and it kind of keeps track of itself

EDIT: Oh and don't start me on storing stuff, I've had to put a whole new column on my spreadsheet so I know where everything is! :rotfl:
