Concessions to saving money #1
Tesco own brand liquorice allsorts = 47p
Instead of Basetts liquorice allsorts = £1.39
Crow Road (paperback) by Iain Banks - Borders price £8.99
Amazon Price £5.45
( I do feel a bit guilty about the above, as I love wandering around Borders and now they are in administration, but whilst I'm happy to pay for a good read and won't resort to finding illegal copies on the net, you can't argue with Amazon's prices. It's sad though, I fear the end of the high street bookshop is near).
Insolence Perfume by Guerlain
(OK I realise I'd save more money by not buying perfume, but I usually keep a couple of three bottles at any time for work, and I've just run out of one and another is close to empty, so I call need on this!)
50mls is circa £42.00
Today I bought a gift box (Christmas always brings out all the lovely gift sets) with the 50ml perfume, 15ml refillable purse spray and 75ml lotion for £38 in John Lewis :) After all the lovely pressies I've been buying for Christmas, it's fun to have something shiny for me!
ps the weather is awful
