Recently I have noticed that some people are paying over the odds for items on the internet. With Halloween coming up my family have started to get ready, we are looking around for decorations and costumes and we are all seeing the same thing. On the internet people are paying too much sometimes paying double the amount for the item and that’s before delivery. For example recently on the biggest auction site( I will not promote this site by name, you’ve all heard of it) in the UK a 6ft talking butler sold for £120 before delivery but in one of the big supermarkets( I will not promote this supermarket by name either) you could buy it brand new for £60.

I know what some people are thinking but we don’t have a big supermarket near us. Well if you paid for the bus from Manchester to London return it would cost you from £15 same day return funfare on the National Express. So get a bus to a big supermarket and spend the extra money you saved on more Halloween stuff and enjoy yourselves. It can’t really cost you £60 to get a bus to a supermarket.

Basically what I’m trying to tell you is use your common sense, shop around on the internet or leave your computer at home and go to the shops and have a look.

Save yourself some money; don’t be taken for a fool, look around before you buy.
