Re: What deals did you get on Amazon Prime Day?
Two weeks ago the Wife bought some trousers online from Debenhams (the store is a 3 minute walk away)
They arrived the next day, and were found to be the wrong size.
She walked across to the store to exchange them.
My head exploded.

There is more then one factor affecting the High Street as we have a archaic business rates system for starters then there is high rents which are being charged for many of these shops by inflexible landlords.
On top of that car parking in many city centres is expensive and it can be quite a hassle to find somewhere to park.
Etc , etc , etc....

Parking charges are terrible in Cambridge, just parking for up to 5hrs costs £19!!! where as the next City closest to me only charges £5 for up to 5hrs.

Boris is going to reduce business rates and there are already plans in train to protect and update our High Streets.
As for car parks - you mean you don't catch the bus into town, Den? No wonder it's been hot lately!

Strange the previous leaders played lip service to the High Street problems and it remains to be seen whether Johnson will change that.

We have a mobility car but trying to park is still a considerable problem in many City Centres and depending on where you go parking charges can range from fair to extortionate.

Amazon Prime and yet you are complaining about less than a fiver a month?
This forum gets more perverse every day! What exactly do you think you are paying for your TV licence every year?

It is not fair or appropriate to compare Johnson to previous leaders. You and I know that he is a one-off, and therefore you must judge him on what he accomplishes as PM.

Re: What deals did you get on Amazon Prime Day?
Do we really need to bring politics to this thread also?

Re: What deals did you get on Amazon Prime Day?
No, we don’t.
This is not a political thread, if you don’t want to talk about online shopping bargains (particularly with reference to Amazon) please post elsewhere.

Re: What deals did you get on Amazon Prime Day?
I keep forgetting sometimes we can use Topcashback with Amazon so missed out on a little more savings!

If you do just make sure you don't have any form of add blocker running when you do the CLICK from topcashback to the site you want to buy something from as it probably won't track.
I spent £11 for the other half at peacocks yesterday and it has tracked at £0.64 cashback.
