You spent almost �900 - you didn't "save" anything. "SAVE!" is a marketing tool, wherby over-inflated prices are reduced to something near their real market value. You'd save even more if you didn't spend anything in the first place. There is a difference between value and price, of course. Something is worth as much as anyone is prepared to pay for it. Did you do any price comparisons? You'll probably find that you could have bought the same products cheaper elsewhere, even after the "20% off"! -- MatSav
