DA Baracus Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 2 hours ago, GordonS said: Have to say, as a former pooro I used to buy only cheap clothes, especially from supermarkets. In recent years I've been buying more expensive stuff from Lewis', Marks etc and I don't find they last any longer at all. Trousers wear out in a year, jumpers go bobbly or lose shape within months. I think dearer used to mean better quality, but not any more. I'm with the guy above who said car tyres. You've got an area the size of an A4 sheet of paper taking all the friction involved in trying to stop a ton of metal doing 70 miles per hour, and your life depends on it. No, I'm not skimping on that. My work wear is cheaply purchased stuff, and my experience is similar in that it usually lasts quite well. I wear a polo shirt at work and the current one has lasted for over 3 years (I wear a different t-shirt underneath it each day before any comments are made). 1 hour ago, Flybhoy said: Cereal. Supermarket own brand stuff is fucking shite. Some are, but some are decent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Golf membership. Gym membership Have to disagree with these 2, PB. Golf is shite so f**k the membership off completely and make a considerable saving and make yourself a better person. Gym membership can definitely be saved on (scrimp is the wrong word). No need to pay bannantynes or David Lloyd £45 pcm for them heat the jacuzzi when all I want to do is go to the gym. If you enjoy the luxury and money isn’t an object I understand why folk would prefer the more prestigious private health clubs but if you just want to use the gym, nae point. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big downside to posher gym membership is that it's often overrun by golfers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Coffee. I’m not saying go to costa or Starbucks for an overpriced coffee but the cheap, shite instant we get offered at work shouldn’t be fit for human consumption. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
