    Hello:A

    I don't post often but do try to keep up. I am having a problem with Currys at the moment and would like a Flash Mob please.
    FLASH MOB!!!!!
    I have a 4 month old tv which has stopped working. Currys has offered a repair. They are adamant no replacement. So no tv for Xmas.

    Many thanks.:A

    Look at this

    https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/shopping/consumer-rights-refunds-exchange

    The sale of goods act says that when goods are faulty within 6 months it is up to the store to prove they weren't faulty when you bought them.

    I had a similar issue with Argos when a TV went kaput within 5 months....I DID get a new one despite them offering only a repair to begin with

    I figured that as the gift was free I would make some effort on the wrapping.
    Running out of paper now (well thats my excuse and I am sticking to it!

    Think I need 2 more rolls and 2 largish gift bags plus a roll of disney cars paper.
    Might keep this theme and put car on outside of dgs present.

    Ps middle of this bow is not perfect but will buy some 3d sticky pads to keep in place tomorrow.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)
