Expensive WeekendsChthonic says he's still reeling from a trip to a wedding that cost him nearly £600; while a friend of ours hazily presented his credit card to the bar staff in a shady club in the Baltic states. You know how that one ended.

Hiring a van.......last time, I decided I'd waive the extra 25 quid insurance premium to cap any excess at 250 quid. I've been hiring vans for the weekend on and off for the last 8 years and never had a problem. Well, this time was the time I decided to misjudge a left turn and scrape the entire passenger-side against a low metal fence. Cost me 700 quid. At least I was able to put this into perspective -- measured against the standard metric of financial outlay arising from a single illjudged moment of madness, it's only 0.03 of a milliBecker.

I do the same ....... ie never pay the extra ... at the moment I have saved more than the difference between std and reduced excess.
