I brought a new range online last november, saved 75 squids and was promised delivery for early december - bargain!
Except some thieving toerag nicked it off the lorry between the factory and my door.
Now I'm told it should be here next week. If I'd got it from the local farm and country store i could have had it the week I ordered it.

It's a good feeling when you manage to find such good bargains isn't it !!

Just can't understand why I haven't always done it this way ..but I guess you live and learn ! x

I looked at an item in Argos.

Found the same item being sold by the manufacturer online and even allowing for the postage saved nearly £15

Me too, Muffy - I now buy all my favourite cosmetics online, much cheaper and it's usually delivered within 2 or 3 days. Brilliant that you got the boots you wanted on Ebay at such a good price! x

Went looking for a new pair of boots today (my ones that are only just over a year old are kn***ered...leaking and scruffy...baulked at paying £56 for the one pair that i actually liked though.

Made a note of the make...went home and put it into Ebay...just bought a pair brand new for £25!!

It's the same with my Clarins stuff... £40 in the shops £10 online !!!!!!!

Has anyone else stopped physically going to the shops to BUY anything like I have?...I just find what I want and go online and buy for more than half price...it seems crazy not to !!! x
