I'm currently at Shell filling up the car.

It usually comes out at around £85 so I figure I'll start the bidding at £57 pounds, what do you think?

Isn't that exactly what my topic was though?

Buying a house, you make an offer
Buying a car, you make an offer
Buying milk, you don't make an offer

So do you make an offer when renting a house?

I agree about the thrust of it and I see what you're saying but I do everything in my gift not to appear cheap.

I think it's a class thing, middle class people seemingly have no problem with being cheap. That said, I've moved to the tightest county in the world. They might as well rename Yorkshire Judea.

A display of prudence can't hurt though too, I guess.

That said, you're probably not renting from a sowt-o-tha-erf barraboy type from hackernee wick and I very much doubt my anachronistic prejudices have much part in any of this.

Left York this morning and Asda was selling at 129.7 while Shell at 136.9

Just drove past the angel of the north. Seems like a pointless entity to me :shrug:

That's simply not how it works.

I'm not sure why being taken for a mug on the price marks you out as classy tbh.

He's right, of course he's right, it's just negotiating, using a coupon or asking for any sort of discount makes me blush.
