Am I missing out?
« on: 02 December 2013, 13:31:02 »
I didn't buy anything on Black Friday  :(
Today is, apparently, Cyber Monday and I have no plans to buy anything online  :(
Everyone else is splashing out while I sit and don't buy anything. Will I feel better if I buy something superfluous and unnecessary?  :-\

Managed to bag a Gaypad Air with a hefty discount on Black Friday, but only because I was looking for one for the missus.  If you dont need owt then I wouldn't be worried. :y

 It is Monday. Panarama tonight will have something to get your juices going. :y :y

Got a nice set of wheels listed if your moths are getting restless ::)

Personally I would be more concerned that John Lewis decided to follow Walmart/Asdas lead :o

I seem to remember it was ?369, or ?30 off the base ipad air. Not a particularly hefty discount, but by Apple's standards it may be. The retina mini had no discounts at all. Oh well, typical Apple I suppose.

Yes, everything is relative, so a few quid off the tightarsed Apple Corp is considered hefty ;D

Why do you live your life so unsustainably - make do with the basics - go for a walk - enjoy the countryside

This is how it works when my little flower wants something I consider unnecessary:

FOR: She doesn't actually need it and is being unreasonable by saying she does. It is usually top of the range when something cheaper would do exactly the same job. Saying that all her colleagues have one is just plain childish. There's not a lot of money about, so I have the moral high ground.

AGAINST: Every time I want to buy something, no matter how inexpensive,  she will give me that accusatory look. She will sulk until she gets her own way. She will tell our friends that I am denying her the one thing that she needs. I like a quiet life.

No brainer really.
