    Well, I have bought 2 things this year (I don't usually do the sales stuff, but couldn't resist)

    This

    And one of these

    I would consider both of the items, not fun items, but necessities, plus having the fridge has made me alter the kitchen so it fits ....... Hey ho
    :D .

    be wary of the guarantee on your fridge freezer - i bought one form iceland 2 months ago and got a letter saying - hasnt a year passed quickly, now your guarantee has run out.... grrrrr they were trying to con me into buying a guarantee when it's just a new fridge freezer :eek:

    With the new matress comes a 'special' cover that supposedly reduces the heat problem ;)

    I have only got 'sensible' things this year, usually I do not believe in 'The Sales' , but the fridge had to be done ........ the matress was/is to help with my back ;)

    Nathan.

    Good bargains Nathan. [​IMG]

    I haven't actually bought anything yet but I am watching this on ebay. (It is already �£77)
    I have bid twice but won't bid again until 5 minutes before bidding ends! It is a very hard to find recording - only a few made and I have been watching for ages to see one for sale - Wish me luck!


    :D

    [​IMG] Ooh well let me know if the cover works Nathan.. It will help your back I am sure of that as it does exactly what it says & you really are supported everywhere by it... Really helped mine. I really miss it for that, but just can't stand being cooked every night..!! :rolleyes: :D
