Non-Purchase Regrets…

What have you NOT purchased recently that you’ve regretted?

I posted a deal for some perfume I was meant to order as a Christmas gift but it sold out before I placed an order

    Buy before you post always

    A lot of people post the deals AFTER they've received the item!


    Classic schoolboy/girl error

    if you mean the Ariana Grande perfume deal you posted, it's in stock at the perfume shop for £23.99 for 100ml - theperfumeshop.com/ari…623

    Not necessarily recent, but there have been a few times I've missed out on tools which I have regretted - on each occasion I thought I don't need that but as soon as the item sells out, I have a requirement for it.

    A lot of this is down to successfully no longer buying 'any old tat' posted on HUKD but this can sometimes mean missing out on a genuine deal for something I will need or which would be used at some point.

    I hate that, hesitate and then lose it whilst trying to decide if i really need it or just want it
    Another really annoying thing, Barclays have made me lose out on soo many deals or possible money makers over the years, as soon as i try to buy multiple expensive items they decline my payment and start sending ke texts for possible fraudulent behaviour, caused me to miss out on a ps5 pre order twice, i was really close to closing my account with the stupid system

    there have been a few phones, I’ve put in my basket, then thought I’ve got a few minutes to think about it, then it’s expired..

    I missed out on it when Tesco had it for like £12 when they reduced all the games. I went downstairs to the game section, couldn't find the game anywhere (app showed it in stock), was a store I'd not been to so that took 10 mins. Went up to customer service to ask as they walked out the stock cupboard next to it with a Ring Fit for the person in front of me, I asked and that was the last one. If only I'd just asked as I went in instead!

    LG G3 65" for 1577 via lg.com, knew the coupons applying were not for me although I did pickup a 32GR93U for £477 with the same coupons the day before so not that bad.

    I LOVE the fact that 9 years later, a deal is still playing on your mind
