    Debt-free and Proud!
    Good luck QOC!

    Thanks everyone for nice messages this morning. This woman doesn't know the bride so she wasn't invited to the wedding but I used to be really good friends with her daughter. It's a long story but basically we're not friends anymore (it's not been a huge bust up or anything, just realised I was better off without her after some stuff that happened years back) and I dunno, maybe the mother resents me for it. You have to be a particularly nasty woman to say something like that on the wedding photo of someone you don't know though. And she's never said anything like it before. Well, not so I could see anyway. It's my belief she didn't realise we could all see what she'd written.

    We've decided to rise above it and not feed the troll. She hasn't had the good grace to apologise so that tells you all you need to know.

    I've just had another spot of bad news. My exes cat has fallen and broken its back. Looks like its going to be put down. I called him and he couldn't speak for tears. I started crying too. What a day :(
    Debt free 6th December 2014 :)

    Daft question, but do we think that this is actually intentional by Argos to clear stock and that they are now using this Vax as their budget version mop?

    Seems to have been going on for a long time for it to be a glitch not to have been corrected?

    I do wonder sometimes whether a glitch is a glitch or is actually a cunning ruse by the marketing department to see how quickly a message can spread/how much they can sell under the guise of a glitch.

    I posted this the other night. I don't think its a glitch, especially now new stock is going to stores and are still vax. also tesc and sainsbug have reduced theirs to £40-£50. so it looks to me that its an end of line clearance. also if you go on the vax website the manual is not listed, also indicating its discontinued.
    but normally argos tell you at the till that its a substitution.
    but its still a great price for one of these.
