    I wouldn't call you that.

    There are many things I would call you.

    And how much have you spent in petrol and time?
    ha ha thats what i was thinking, if its anything like my petrol glugging thing most of the £25 will have gone in petrol!
  • £25 is not the exact figure saved, but I don't want to go into it

    No, the exact figure is far, far lower and probably negative ;)

    £5+ in petrol going to 4 different stores. 90 minutes driving around like a loon with a printer and then probably at least an hour wasting our time on here.

    You'd have been better off keeping the printer.

    If you think that is money saving then you are doing it wrong :cool:.

    And your reasoning about you getting it done was due to poor staff training I find quite distasteful. I think you have a "ME" complex.

    That's the thing. There are lots of 'hidden' costs when trying to save money. No point in saving £25 if it ends up costing you £30 in other expenses to do it. And my time is worth something, too.

    Absolutely, something the OP has completely overlooked. Personally, if it doesn't give me a return of £20+ for an hour of my time I simply do not bother.

    As long at they win their little "moral" victory all is well in their world no doubt.

    Who do I invoice for reading this thread? I reckon I've earned at least £25 for having to read Berber's childish justifications :money:

  • £0.25?

    Ok, I was close at saying 0 wasn't I?
