Last minute preparations and Christmas surprise deal

Here we are getting jobs done around the house and Janice cooking up some delights for tomorrow. A lemon cheesecake delight (which is really an excuse to use some of the limoncello liquor) and scotch eggs, tasty but not the regular christmas fare you're probably thinking..... well we had to add something different as Sue is doing the usual christmas goodies!

And had to share an unexpected "Christmas came early" surprise for us today and one to support the old "shop around" idea. We recently (as in a few days ago) bought a new LCD TV, very nice, good deal, all happy. Until we see that the same TV would have been $90 cheaper, arse!

I called Good Guys and told them we had seen it cheaper and they said they had a price match policy, as long as I brought in some printed proof. Being an old british sceptic I was very suspect of this, so I did what any respectable man would do.... and sent my wife in to do the deal! Then I get a message from her saying that not only did they price match it she walked out with $100 in cash, winner :) So thanks Good Guys, we'll shop there again.
