1) Matresses. Spending 8 hrs a day on a bad one is a recipee for disaster.

2) Meat. Nothing worse than a stodgy steak.

3) Shoes. Cheap shoes are a complete no no.

Disagree about shoes. Cheap shoes can be a bit hit and miss, but I'd rather shop in Shoefayre than Clark's. I got a £15 pair of boots in Shoefayre, which are still okay after a year. Probably have cost me £60 in Clark's.

Also, I always shop in Primark, now. I can get a pair of trousers for £6 which would cost £36 in M&S.

It's that sort of thinking that lets M&S charge 6 times the price for the same quality.

Is £25 cheap for shoes? :(

Definately food. I'm willing to pay extra to avoid cheap value crap. Not really anything specific...all foods. I'm a food snob.

I'd say a quality shower for your bathroom is never money wasted.

Also, you never regret spending money on a fine timepiece.

There are soooooo many things it's not worth spending extra on, a couple spring to mind.

Flights.

I don't mean 1st class etc but just going with a reputable decent airline.

Can't be doing Ryanair anymore. Pay an extra £20 and go with a proper airline that doesn't take the pee with hidden charges. Also get drinks and meal provided rather than pay £10 for a sandwich ans "sachet" of vodka.

Shoes I definitely agree with.

Complete false economy to go cheap - they are uncomfortable, don't last long, look rubbish and smell.
