not being funny love but saving an extra £40 may be ok, but when you have to find £200 before you go, then factor in food/drink costs there, you are probably looking in the region of £250-£300 for the day, then an extra £40 is a lot.

I don't think she's disputing any of that.

what i cant get my head round is the stick the club are getting They cant win. We took 21K tickets and Wembley obviously decide which 21K they are. Not everyone will be able to sit exactly where they want in such a big crowd i.e Old Trafford semi final you Q'd for a ticket you got one fairness didnt come into that equation either. They decide not to create the chaos of previous ticket allocations and they get slated for that. The ticket policy of selling unlimited numbers is not the clubs decision its the Fa's. Now I take on board that family commitments may dictate the price range of the tickets and everyone is budgeting but there is only 1700 £26 Tickets regardless of how they sell them there is not enough of that price band what ever way you look at it. I am luckier than some of you I no longer have family commitments and if necessary will pay £46 if necessary but I will get in. This is Wembley not Saltergate We wont sell out we really wont

Well seeing as I have a job... I do know the value of money, I even worked Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day this past holiday because I'm saving up all the money I can. I also help a lot with family budgeting at home and know exactly how to make money go as far as possible. So to say something like that as a personal attack is rather more insulting than anything I've said here, I'd have expected a little more maturity from a grown man.

If you can't see why your first post is just plain wrong then......

They have to make sure that all ST holders have a fair crack at getting the £26ers, however limited number that may be. If I understand the policy correctly, as it stands, non ST holders can jump the queue on Tuesday with a piggy back from a kop ST holder. We have STs but we might have to get ours via a kop ST holder, though we shouldn't have be in the position of doing this. Turner may have made a comment about holding some £26ers back after Tuesday, but if he has it hasn't been publicised to all fans as far as I know.

It's there clearly on the website for all to see that they will be holding back some £26 tickets for each day of sale

I use coupons most of the time to get my food shopping either free or nearly free, there are quite a few websites if anyone wants to know them you can PM me, because if you use the ones I know, you can easily save £40 from food bills between now and March. An example of this is the other day I went to Boots and using coupons and a pricing glitch I got £20 worth of vitamin tablets and makeup I needed for about £2.
I also get things like holidays and luxury items like handbags etc free, by entering competitions which I can also talk people through, I usually ebay the things I win and therefore make money this way, I think I've made £30+ this month alone, and this has been a very quiet month. My point was that you can, with minimal effort, save £40 between now and March.
Also changing energy suppliers can save even more than £40 if you know what you're doing there, hardly anyone is actually on the cheapest tariff for what they actually use.
So again, I do know about money, I do know the value of money and if anyone does need to save that extra £40 before Wembley, it is very possible and I am willing to help anyone in the situation of thinking they can't. If you're all now going to continue to complain at the offer of helping you to save the money and cover the extra cost, then I suppose there's just no satisfying some people!
Not replying to argumentative posts right now, cause I'm already angry, woken up to find some idiot's broken my freezer and everything defrosted, so don't want to take that out on anyone who isn't my idiot flatmate!

all the essentials then.

I need vitamin tablets otherwise I tend to get ill very easily, and I doubt there are many women around who don't wear make up. I'm sure a lot of people with children will give vitamin tablets to them, and as kids vitamins were included in the offer, it would have probably have been relevant to families.
There are other offers I use, such as getting 2 big blocks of pilgrims choice cheese for £1.50 for both about a week ago, that's far cheaper than even the value brands.

make up is essential for girls tbh mr smith!

you really are a patronising (fill this space with your own choice), as a student you might have the time to be trawling countless websites, spending time on ebay, etc, most of my time is spent doing something constructive, WORKING, 10 to 14 hrs day, to be precise, getting up to start anytime from 3.30 am to 5.30 am and finshing when i'm done, and then getting ready to start again at stupid o'clock the next day, my weekends sre spent, spending time with my family as i hardly see them in the week. so how do suggest i save my fortune,

what i'm saying is that everyone's situation is different you can't come on here stating you can save everyone money without knowing each and everyone's personal situations, but your post's have come across like we are a wasteful bunch, and we need re-educating on housekeeping.
