Just ordered one myself the reviews seem too good to be true but as my blades (fusion) are like £12 a packet it is certainly worth a try!

The razorpits are awesome - dab of shaving foam/cream and don't 'scrape' the blade light - push down hard. Do it after every shave and a blade will last a couple of months easy.

Beats Headphones. I know its all about the brand name, but they sound no better than £20 supermarket headphones. My £200 headphones should sound half decent!

Getting a car painted,or even just the price of paint itself for a car is ridiculous.

Thought I recognised the name, off topic, how did it all work out in the end ?

Yes they are a thread top 10. Not just overpriced but actual robbery. Very poor product.

How? If you managed to do that with anything other than your course fees you're an idiot. However, if you did that with your course fees, you're still an idiot because student loans are not even real loans.

If I had 15k in the bank I'd still have taken a student loan to pay my fees.

My accommodation was around £5k per year which my Dad paid for as he earnt a good wage I only received a loan of £3,500 to survive which was about £70 a week. I had a part-time job for year 1 + 2 but most of this went on running a car and a holiday.

Your parents are almost forced to pay if they earn over £50k at £3,500 you are already £2k in the minus before you even buy food etc... with the loan my sister accommodation at Leeds Uni was £6,500 per year yet she received a £3,500 loan so £3k to find each year to cover it before she even had money to actually live.

Marine. Anything marine is stupidly expensive!
Clarion Marine head unit? The same as in your car, but twice the price!

Probably already been said, but water in a bottle with Evian, Volvic etc. written on the side.

Is it that much better than what I get out the tap?

It didnt,took the guy to court and lost.Judge agreed paint was a mess,but sided on the exact wording of the receipt,which said 'respray',not what the painter and i agreed on,finishing repairs then painting.Spent 2500 on the car,bought it for 1700,sold it for 1300,great experience all in! ;-)

Dartford crossing, which is increasing to £2.50 - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2824651/Mi...

Should have stopped charging in 2003. Since Nov 2008, the price will have increased from 1.50 to 2.50 a 65% increase.

Fair comments and normally I would be the one saying this too.

I have a small business and I use the particular phone and its stylus a lot. I find the note 3 perfect for my needs in this respect so I wanted to get the same
