    Oh no....you’re going to have to pay full price for one:o:rotfl:

    I know, that dilemma has already gone through my head. Do I buy another one I dont really need, and spend more but get better value for money, or just buy the 3, spend less, but a lot worse value for money. :o

  • Right well where do I start – I was getting the hang of MSE and extreme coup and HUKD. I was doing well and anyway to cut a very long story short ended up buying a folder of moneysaving tips from a girl on facebook. She is selling 100’s so thought I was missing out on something.


    Anyway needless to say the so called folder ( an email) is a load of twaddle. You have to print it yourself - after paying £18 for a folder I thought I was getting an item in the post for goodness sake. The contents of this email are rubbish - how to do yellow sticky shops lol. When you ask where your hard copy is you are told to go to the library to print the twaddle. It is badly written with inaccuracies and misspellings - anyway advice - do you think I am being unreasonable? Would you feel "HAD" if you purchased something that was a poor rehash of bits and pieces from HUKD and MSE?

    Oh I must tell you a conversation I heard in the Asda petrol station today:rotfl:

    A man in front of me was complaining that Asda had no water for his washers. The girl said it was frozen.

    He went off chuntering to the fridge and bought 2 bottles of still water and complained loudly that it was disgraceful that he had to buy water and how Asda should provide bottled water free when their water was unavailable.

    The SA raised her eyebrow in synch with mine:rotfl:

    “Go home” I wanted to shout:rotfl:

    Honestly some folk:rotfl:

    Fancy having to buy water:eek::eek:!:rotfl:
    I would never have noticed her eyebrow, or yours:o:rotfl::rotfl:.

    Eyebrow?:huh: You'd have to have a video and play it in really slow motion and, then, after staring at it - fortunately the video of your eyebrow and not your actual eyebrow in RL - for ages, I would still have no clue and would have to ask "What does the movement of your eyebrow mean?":rotfl:

    I think I know (...but how can I ever be sure I "know" anything?). I would not have noticed it at the time though.

    Strangely enough, if I was going for 4, that was the one I thought after seeing your previous post, or a '!' if they do one.

    My thoughts exactly - but I just don't get it - she has sold hundreds of these emails (that's what they are - they are not folders). Other people seem happy with what they have received - ( should add that they are told to say they are happy - I hadn't realised the false reviews at time of purchase) - People are mugs or I am missing something. Has anybody else on here fallen foul of this folder flogger.
