    I can sympathise - bought some skincare stuff recently and if you bought two products you got a free gift - girlies like that kind of offer! That was fine, then the assistant said "if you buy a third item, you get a ticket in the raffle for this big basket of skincare and fragrance." Ooh, can't resist an offer like that, so I was talked into buying something I didn't really need, in the hope I'd win other stuff I didn't really need. You guessed it, I not only didn't win the raffle, but when my monthly statement arrived, I found I'd paid $160 for the ticket - sorry, third product!
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!

    The way you say that "me old mate"....... makes me wonder
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Anyhoo I find a jumper I like, note the price is 385 RMB, quick mental harifmatic and I work that out to be between $50 and $80. Pricey for China, but it's a nice un.

    Back in the hotel I realised that I'd failed to notice that there was an extra '0' (zero) on the jersey's price tag. I make that over $500 I paid for the bastard.

    I am sooooo gonna get my arse kicked when Ms Biff finds out.
    On visa?

    Query the bill straight away. They might (hopefully) put the thing on hold and you can somehow work it out.

    Was it an innocent mistake or were you fleeced (sheep jokes aside for a mo)

    I wonder if Mrs Biff can use that excuse......

    Wives are like children. They pack a sad just to let you know whose the boss then forgive us so that we think we are.

    Just make sure you are wearing the jersey when she greets you. That way when she finds out the price you say "well darlin' you did love the jersey." Then undress slowly. She'll melt.
