Enough with the bargains....

rolf_f

It has to stop. It's getting silly. This month, against my will, I have been forced to buy:

1 Scott CR1 frame at 75% off
3 pairs of Fizik R3 shoes (though, to be fair, the two that don't fit are going back) at 50% off
1 pair of Woollie Boollie socks
1 pair of Gore Xenon Mitts
1 set of Campagnolo UT brake and gear cables
1 pair of Look cleat covers
1 x 7ft Kryptonite cable
1 Garmin cadence and speed sensor
1 pot of Chamois Buttr (the above 7 items = 3 x Dad20 Evans offers ie £20 off a £50 spend).
1 x Campagnolo 34t 110 BCD chainring unused off Ebay

Plus, because the above made my nose bleed and my head hurt I also somehow had to buy a Carradice Audax saddle bag though that was only £5 off retail from the ever enjoyable Spa Cycles (now happily back to being shambolic after the move to the new premises which all looked a bit tidy last year).

Anyway, it has to stop. No more bargains please*.

*On the bright side, I have saved £1700.............

Amazon have them for £28 at the moment.

Posting bargains in the thread calling for a halt to bargains. That's not on. I'm off to look at speed/cadence sensors on Amazon.

You just need to be harder to please or unsure of what you want / need. I've been thinking of getting new mitts and shoes but can't find any I like or think will suit so nothing gets bought.

I'm reluctant to pay full price for anything now!

You see what you've done? You see? How can you live with yourself? It has to stop!

Mind you, the shoes are rather nice!
