    Did tescos have a special on Stella last night?

    I actually felt sorry for Dirtbox after reading all that, guess getting married and buying a house doesn't make everyone happy in life!

    Still not buying sky, their currently offering me half price tv for a year plus £100 credit to spend in their store!

    The last couple of pages went full on David Lynch. That's full on five alarm weird. What the hell? Very entertaining. I wonder if there's going to be a sequel.

    Seriously, who the hell has a right to tell the poor guy not to get to as its too expensive? I'll tell you who. No-one.

    For me, it's way to expensive but if someone has the money, why the hell not?!
    Some people get a helicopter to work, who am I to say 'omg what a waste of money'.

    I would pay Sky subscriptions for the rest of my days if they promised to fire LetsGo into the sun

    Maybe that's what Murdoch's saving up for, he's got dreams too

    Wouldn't even have to get to the sun, if for example the rocket blew up even before it left orbit I wouldn't cancel my sub

    It's really the effort that should be rewarded, not just the end result

    Because there's a big difference between spending a lot of money on something and wasting money.

    It's like doing your weekly shop, it coming to £60 and you just throwing a grand at the till and walking off.

    @LetsGo

    Agreed.
    Seconded.
    Completely correct.

    That's a terrible analogy. That is literally throwing money away and getting nothing in return.

    Now if there were two identical services, one was charging £60 and the other £120, only a fool would pay £120.

    There are many different services, each with strengths/weaknesses and varying price points. Everyone has the right to decide what is value TO THEM.

    Nobody makes a wrong choice, if it's the right choice for them.

    (Of course I'm sure a few will now tell me I'm wrong for spend £125 notes a month)..

    Yeah it's a mad argument because it's entirely subjective.

    Why pay more for anything? Why buy a cappuccino when you could buy instant from a machine?

    its probably more like tesco offering you the exciting opportunity to take the 60 quids worth of groceries out of your normal trolley and put them in a gold plated one for the low, low price of doubling their cost and paying the checkout girl a monkey to shift them for you.

    /that snapping sound was the analogy stretched to breaking point

    Because the discussion is about value,rather than cost.

    What is it in the old eurogamer favourite measure of value 'the pint'?

    It's like paying £6.30 for 2/3 a pint of "craft Pilsner"

    It's like sucking Rupert Murdoch's shrivelled licorice root cock to the tune of £1500, that's what it's ruddy well like.

    Is this still a thread for a shitty Sky Dvr box? I'm super confused.

    It was but now it's about a bunch of people telling another forumite what they should spend there money on.
