Not something I bought but we were given a large 3 pint stainless steel teapot as a wedding present nearly 48 years ago and it has been used every day since. When it comes out of the dishwasher it looks as good as new. |

Mine was a mirror when we lived in France. Went into a furniture shop that we liked to just look around. Was an expensive shop so just liked looking. There was a sale on. I spotted 2 mirrors, lovely ones with wooden surround, 1 was smaller than the other. It was supposed to be 50% off. Spotted the sale ticket on the larger 1 & it said 50 euros. The smaller 1 was way above that price in the sale so I asked a sales lady in the shop & asked if that price was right. 3 times she said it was before it clicked with her that someone had put the sale price up at 50 euros instead of 50% off. She took the ticket off & went away, about 10mins. later she came back & told us we could have it for 50 euros. We did'nt really need a mirror but could'nt not buy it at that price. We could'nt have afforded it at the sale price but can't resist a bargain. |

I bought a picture of Montmatre at a jumble sale about 25+ years ago, for £2,50. I was interested in the frame. |

Pure fluke, Joy, but I'm looking at the other 800+ books I have, and summoning up the courage to use e-bay. |

We bought a leather chesterfield, made to order in 1975, which was delivered in April 1976. Still going strong ! |
