I was thinking of going to debenhams or similar and getting a decent suit. I can get a good one for around £140 cant i?
i'm not even kidding.
to be honest, the only thing worth paying extra for is a custom fit. if you're gonna buy off the peg, you'll usually get just as good a fit and quality in ASDA as somewhere like debenhams. and a lot of ASDA ones are machine washable, which is the handiest thing ever. dry clean only things are the work of the devil.
Thanks for the link miss sharp teeth il take a good read of that.
Also kaffrin if you say asda are pretty good then il take your advice and go shop around, cant hurt can it.
Thanks for the help guys, im gonna go shopping
Thanks, its not until the 20th so iv got time to prepare.
Thanks guy and girls the woman phoned me just now and her words were "Your C.V and interview blew us away"
*feels head getting unaturally large*
Thank you people your great
Yep i got it. Thank you
For a employer to say that about me i dont think even offering a 6 figure sum bribe would cover it
Congrats on getting the job! work hard to impress them but dont become a arselicker it aint big and it certainly aint clever it leaves you friendless and branded a **** for life.
Not saying you would but there is too many people in this world who think they can brown nose their way to the top :mad:
*thinks about certain arseholes at my work*
Wholly crap £500
My uncle flew to Goa on Holiday and had 2 custom made suits and extra trousers. Suits costed him about £50 when you convert the currency.
And planes tickets were about £300. My advice is if you're gonna spend that kind of money to go have a holiday and go to places like India or Thailand, Singapore and have a suit made there.
Many of the Big Asda and Tesco's sell suits now and some pretty nice ones, and quite reasonable prices. I'd spent the big money once you have the job.
