There are some big discounts on Amazon for the rather elegant Skagen watches - a brand I'm a fan of.

This is the one I got, at a little more than half price. :)

I once went to Nandos with three friends, went to pay on my debit cCard and they got it wrong and charged me 35p instead of of £35. How they managed it I don't know but I didn't tell them.

Bargain.

I'm sure you can but I'm happy enough with that, I'm not really into trawling around until I find the absolutely cheapest.

I don't mean obscure places. I saw em on Schuh for £35 not long back.

But £45 is not bad I suppose. When did longboard last buy any? When Gola were the latest news? ;)

Bought a dinner jacket, dress shirt and trousers from Asda all for under £50. I know it's not the best quality but for something I'll wear once in a blue moon I think that is a bargain. I've always been a bit snobby about Asda clothes but they seemed to have some good stuff.

Nah, too modern for me. I remember when they were simply a item to wear for some sports. Dunlop green flash I can remember as being the latest thing. :)

They are both the coolest. :huh: How can this be? :unsure:

Still a lot of money for runners, no matter how cool they are. ;)
