About £833,000 per minute...

[Aperitif]

...will be spent each minute today, Thursday, by avid UK shoppers - apparently. (That's more or less one of these - just to make it 'real' )
Go for it!

 

[Keith Oates]

Now, how many bikes could I buy with that money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[beanzontoast]

...unless you are at work all day like me, unable to get to the shops and too late for online spending.

A great way to avoid overspending!

 

[XmisterIS]

one of these

And to think that some people can afford to flash the cash with one of those, while others can't afford to buy lunch at Christmas let alone any presents!

£30,000,000+/- already...enough to buy a few snow ploughs and a chain of bakers shops. Anyone who rides a bike in the front door gets free cake!

'struth! I couldn't even afford just one of those .

 

[beanzontoast]

I've already got a watch anyway.

 

[asterix]

I may have some spare ones for you in a day or 2. What size?

 

[threebikesmcginty]

Rather than buy that vile looking wristwatch you could buy 119,000 £7.00 Casio watches, which is enough to wear a new one every day. You'll have enough of them to last you until you're 326.

I won't be joining in. Partly because I'll be in bed for half the day, but mostly because I haven't got any money until I get paid tomorrow.

You'll need to buy new batteries for most of them before you ever get to wear them though! 326 years is pushing it for a watch battery!

But you do get one of these free with every purchase - don't be so tight asterix!

Rumour has it that on the hour, every hour, the watch exclaims...in a French accented English; " I did not see ze penalty incidont; my plaiyeurs ar ze most 'onest and would 'ave told ze reffeuree"

£119,000,000 approx, although my mental arithmetic is going to be shot next time around. Maybe it's time for a watch with a calculator built in - an old school casio. Got one, threehandsmcginty?

I read somewhere recently that the days of the wrist-watch are numbered (pun intended).
Nowadays, there are so many gizmos and gadgets, phones, ipods etc that tell the time, which is signalling the demise of the watch.

Watches with calculators are nerd city-central
This is the one I had (1980-ish I guess) - blimey, you can find it all on the internet. Apparently...
