What's your price? (lighthearted!)

I had to buy several light, easy to post gifts and found some nice teatowels on amazon.
I don't like to use amazon but they were on offer from I think £10 each to £2.50.
I bought them.
So my price is £7.50 saving, such cheap principles.

You can get a pack of 2 in Poundland.

I like posh tea towels.

I am not looking at tea towels on amazon right now.

I am Wink

Mental sobs at the irony of having given amazon more trade (dh does enough of that by himself)

Anyone else feel like confessing their "price" - like that star trek episode with Evil Kirk spitting "what'll it take to buy you, Spock?" (and Spock keeping his dignity but secretly thinking "£7.50 per teatowel but I can't tell evil Kirk that as he'll tediously bring it up all the time").

I bought a £12 tea towel reduced to £8.

Ok Im lying. I bought two. But they are different designs. Im trying to build up a fancy seasonal selection you see, so it was necessary. Except I cant bring myself to use them yet. They’re too posh and might get tea stains on them.

Struggling to get tea towels that actually dry anything, instead they just seem to push the moisture around without absorbing it.

£7 so about the same s yours. I only buy clothes made in Europe. Except, my favourite shop has a mixture and I loved a cardigan before I checked the label. Made in China, damn them. I still bought is and still feel guilty about it.

I'm so cheap, my principles are sold for £1 and free delivery. At that price doesn't even matter what junk I'm getting. My only saving grace is that I'm also a tight bastard and will not part with my pennies unless I've no choice.
