I want to strangle something!
 
I've been saving up all my pennies for a book, which costs £5.99 from Ottakars for over a month. I decided, a few days ago, to go into town to go buy said book, only to find that Waterstones have bought over Ottakars. I went inside anyways, and found that they had bumped the price up to £12.99!!! I am REALLY angry about this, I've wanted to read this book for a long time now and I have to raise more than double what I already have! I tried looking on Amazon, found it was £5.99 there too but the P&P is really high so there's no way I'll be getting it any time soon. eBay's even more expensive than Waterstones, so that's out of the question too!


:mad:

Amazon are TERRIBLE. They advertise for £5.99 but when you get to the checkout it's almost £10. :sad:
