When's the next VAT free offer?

[fungus]

Anyone know when Machine Mart's next VAT free offer is likely to be?

Got a list of things now and I'll be an unhappy bunny if I now place the order only to find the next week they're discounted!

It varies from area to area, but I doubt they'll have one before Christmas.

Shame if they dont have one before Christmas,Vat goes back up to 17.5% in January.

If its a "VAT FREE DAY" you'll save even more money after Christmas.......

I got a card in the post last week, valid until end of November, so there may be some VAT offers around.
I've also got an email saying use the code online or in any store.
Keep your eyes peeled

I think Road meant, If they have one before new year we would not save more than if they had one after the vat went up.

If something costs £100 + vat you pay £115 before New Year, but £117.50 after.

On a VAT free promotion you'd still pay £100 before or after New Year.

But before New Year you save £15.00, afterwards you save £17.50, so you save more by waiting, but spend the same money anyway.

Sounds like my wife.

Wife: "I saved a fortune buying this, everything in the shop was half price"

Me: "You should've bought the whole shop dear ... then we'd be rich"

It's like happy hour at the pub, the more you drink the more you save I think the last two I got were 4 months apart.

I have one the same I ask "how much did it cost"

Reply "I saved x amount"

Eh!!!

Don't forget the bargain price dress, "but I had to get matching handbag and shoes" - total cost, more than the full price of dress!
