Damn you Black Friday, damn you to hell

I didn't mean to do it but I bought a new coffee machine

I could come up with some weak justification but why bother, shiny thing make it all better.

Quick dig online did show it was a decent deal.

 

If anyone is looking Currys has their pod machines heavily discounted as well. My mate came in with me to pick up mine and walked out with a Bosch Tassimo machine for himself.

 

Icing on the cake was after picking up the coffee machine I got home to find that BA had decided to cough up for the flight delays in July. So that paid for the machine and a bit more :clap:

I have a Delonghi coffee machine. Don't think of it as an expensive machine but an investment in your happiness

15% off Tough Mudder, not really a treat lol

It doesn't matter how much you saved, it will still produce a brown liquid tasting like the Devils urine.

Could've sworn it was Thursday.

[Brimma]

Still about £300 too much

Not a coffee fan then?

Sure you're not getting mixed up with instant coffee?

Sorry, I didn't think I'd made it that obvious

What's wrong with a jar of Nescafe instead of all this poncy coffee?

What's wrong with a tin of Special Brew instead of a Chatau Lafite 1982?

[Paul007]

A tuner is reducing the cost of a stage 1 remap from £499 to £350. Tempting....

Also just bought something I wasnt intending at Currys.

 

Went online to look at a specific "no name" Fridge Freezer - being advertised as a "bargain"; ended up with a brand name one nearly twice the internal size - for only £10 more.

 

All Kenwood products are an extra 10% off at the till - just enter "KENWOOD" in the coupon box; even the Black Friday deals.

 

Well, it was about time we replaced our 30+ y/o fridge freezer; it has done sterling service, but the plastics are getting brittle.

Well, apparently Special Brew* makes you misspell the word "chateau"

 

^Other wines and vintages are available.

* Other beers are available.

Nescafe instant coffee?  What's right with it. ( I suppose  you can tip the coffee out and use the jar to hold nuts and bolts or something.)

It'll be a fridge in the Xmas sales.

 

Too much going on right now to manage that too.
