What's the best bargain you've had recently!?

Mine was a £40 jumper from Next that when it scanned up randomly came up as £15. Winner!

A friend decided on a corner sofa and it was only when going to the till to pay.. it came up as £800 instead of £1,600! Double winner!

Yourself?

Picked up two bags of satsumas from local co-op from reduced bin but because they were Bogof they actually paid me to take them home because reduction was based on full price. Only £1.59 but two "free" bags as well, result

I was sold an embroidered cap in a junk shop, marketed to me as a 'Masonic fez'. Quite unusual but I baulked at £20. But I got it.

Noticed the Lock&Co label inside and it's one of their smoking caps, retails at £225...

It's in mint condition and now gracing the head of my V mask in the stairwell at home.

I got a pair of blue suede shoes for £26, down from £89 just when I'd given up looking for blue suede shoes.

I bought a bra in M&S that was marked at £26 and the matching knickers marked at £10 and it came up as £11.99 for the lot at the till.

It was the hot water circulating pump, phosphor bronze, I searched all over for a good price but type / make, all were coming in same price if it had been the normal heating circulating pump they come in at around £70 but the hot water one has to be phosphor bronze so you don't get water discolouration if components rust/corrode in normal pumps

in the eye of the storm

At a action in south end I bid on tool box it was one meter high half a meter deep around 15 draws .

I didn't expect to get it but the bidding stopped at 35 pound so with commission it cost me just over 40 pound .

It was to heavy to lift into the back of my van so I removed the draws first they were full of taps and dies micrometers basically it was a engeneers box full of a life times tools .

I went to a car boot the following day and sold over 1500 pounds worth if bits out of the box all in all by the time I sold the box to I'd made over 2500 pound for the out lay of just over 40 pound .

I had other results similar to that when I used to do a bit of buying ans selling but that's the one that always comes to mind first .

We missed a great bargain at the end of last year and still kick ourselves. We saw some oak flooring reduced to 50p a pack in a diy shop. Couldn't decide if we would use it so walked away, a few days later realised the three packs they had would have covered the small loo.

near the sounds of the wimborne quarter jack!

After spending at least £1200 getting an ancient tractor engine rebuilt, it was a pleasant surprise to be given a very useful implement by a neighbour who was moving. She`d had it as an "art piece" along with several other pieces of interesting stuff - which the new occupants gave me as they didn`t want such "shit" in their garden!

So, a good £100 of useful buckrake and some old junk to car boot! Winner!
