Experience: Worth it?

When was the last time that you thought 'I paid over the odds, but I don't care'?

And conversely, when was the last time that you thought 'That was an incredible deal' ?

For me, it's over the odds every time I drop in to Caffe Nero for a Chai Latte, whereas the last 'what a deal' feeling came from a £1 suet ball (in a coconut) bird-feeder that is giving the birds in our garden much pleasure - though much for the cat to feel frustrated about.

1. My brand of vodka is only twice as much as the cheap stuff. But so it goes.

2. Get this: We get as much eating out of 3 eggs as we did out of 4. Massive saving.....

1. When buying some imported duck breast confit from the village shop, about half an hour ago. Expensive, but the village shop hasn't stocked any "gourmet" items before and the importers are locally based, so we wanted to support the experiment.

2. Ah, there you have me!
