Stupid ways you've wasted money

Please help me feel better by telling me your tales of money mistakes... I'm so embarrassed and horrified... On Friday I spent £390 on 2 tickets to Mumford & sons... I like them, but not that much!!! And we don't really have the money! It was supposed to be a massive treat. I thought £175 was the total price, there was a big red clock counting down, the kids were at me, I got click happy confirm confirm confirm... There isn't an adequate excuse. The tickets are non-refundable, and if I sell them, I need to go there on the night and hand them over to the buyer which involves a couple of hours drive, paying to park... I can't be the only one to have done something so stupid... can I?!

ihatethecold That absolutely thrills me! She just seems like such a lovely person and to find out she’s not would be so sad so I’m so pleased she was as lovely as I’d hope Grin

Very jealous - enjoy the show ❤️❤️❤️

Any bands or people we like to see we sign up to the fan website (not charging ones) and they will usually have 24 hour presale before the tickets are released at the normal cost. We have seen Muse, Foo Fighters and others this way. Cheaper and easier.
