The £298 estimate for jewellry is not much if people have wedding and engagement ring on is it??

So that is £169.50. Obviously proving that I am a cheapskate as I come in below average on everything. Although I cunningly missed out including my wedding and engagement rings!

Pants £1.50 - Primark
Socks - 40p - Primark

I agree £298 is not that much for an engagement ring and wedding ring. I thought I had REALLY cheap ones at a total of £328
