This is a question Waste of money

I once paid a small fortune to a solicitor in a legal case. She got lost on the way to court, turned up late with the wrong papers and started an argument with the judge, who told her to "shut up, for the love of God". A stunning investment.

Thanks to golddust for the suggestion

Spent two grand on a leather three-piece suite
At Uno. Who didn't bother placing the order with their suppliers (who had stopped supplying them due to outstanding payments) and who went bust a few months later, taking a LOT of customers' money with them, including mine.

Why didn't I pay on card? Because I had a £600 discount for paying cash in full, that's why.

Oh, and after the Uno/World of Leather collapse a new company, New World of Leather formed, which pulled exactly the same scam on their customers a year later.

Oh don't worry
The next one went on card, several years later. One wrong word from the Kingdom of Leather sales lady (who looked like Monette Lee from late-night HTV Wales when they first went 24 hour, and the store was a stone's throw from the studios in Cardiff, funnily enough) and I'd have been out of there. Was VEEEERRRRY wary!
