    DM - you were mentioning the other day about deals for a particular present? If it is something that is available from a major retailer with a good returns policy, and something that is not uniquely identifiable (serial number, retailer specific label etc), I have heard some people have been known to buy items in the past and then when the item has appeared in a sale, bought it again at the reduced price and returned ithat item with the original receipt (or if unused, returned the item to get a refund and bought again at the reduced price).

    Thank you so much for this reply Anon, but the price does not bother me, it is just totally unavailable. Guess she will just have to wait/do without.

    Its a mystery to me
    The game commences
    For the usual fee
    Plus expenses
    Confidential information
    Its in a diary
    This is my investigation
    Its not a public inquiry
    I go checking out the reports
    Digging up the dirt
    You get to meet all sorts
    In this line of work
    Treachery and treason
    Theres always an excuse for it
    And when I find the reason
    I still cant get used to it
    And what have you got at the end of the day?
    What have you got to take away?
    A bottle of whiskey and a new set of lies
    Blinds on the window and a pain behind the eyes
    Scarred for life
    No compensation
    Private investigations

    Have you had chicken for tea Anon?

    No - pizza :)

    ... though I have no idea where the chicken tikka in my sandwiches at lunch had appeared from, I swear that the M chicken kievs/goujons and A chicken tikka pieces are breeding in our freezer :eek:.
