Ok - I'm usually a pretty savvy shopper but in a moment of weakness I have had a major fail :o
Been eyeing up a watch I fancy since Christmas and finally saw the price come down by about £30 in store A in the local 'mall' so I bought it and feeling pretty pleased with myself for being patient and waiting for the price to come down...today, same shopping centre, different shop, same watch but £65 cheaper :doh:_pale_
Its taken the shine of my new watch a bit and I do love it but the moral of this story is check, check and double check before you put the money down.

    And after you have bought, STOP LOOKING!

    I know I shouldn't have looked -but once a MSE fanatic - always a :money: fanatic...

    I love the watch though. I did consider for a minute returning it to shop A and going and buying it at shop B but I would just feel guilty as I have worn it for a couple of days. Its lesson learned though :D
