I'm torn between want and need here folks.
I have -£1400 but £2500 overdraft overhead (£1000 spare) and a fairly well paid new job starting in two weeks. Me and my girlfriend - both huge film fans - want to make a rare splash of cash into buying one of those massive TV sets.
We're targetting a Samsung 37" HD LCD TV. This costs £519 from several websites. But... we're tempted to get a top of the line home cinema sound system with DVD player. The website Laskys are quoting £700 for the bundle. It's supposed to cost £250, so a good deal.
However, we have thin floors and our landlady's four year old daughter is in the room below. A home cinema sound system would be fantastic but is it unpractical and uncessary extra spending? Or is it worth the punt for quality, experience and good value.
I'm indecisive when it comes to money. I know the logical thing to do would be do not spend anything and put up with our ancient 14" TV. But... I want it.
What's the best thing to do?
