Hello!

I have a very funny story I wanted to share with you.

My close friend was always looking for ways to save money and collecting coupons ect.

So one day she was so excited when she saw a product on ebay that guaranteed to cut all your bills in half.

She was super excited and rang me to tell me she had purchased it and it was $55.00

I told her it was a scam and nothing could cut your bills in half unless you use less electricity or gas.

She wasn’t convinced so she waited patiently for her parcel to arrive.

I was so lucky to be there the day it arrived.

It was a big box and we both wondered what could possibly be inside.

Imagine how surprised she was when she opened the box and there was a pair of scissors inside.

I guess it can well and truly cut your bills in half. lol

It was worth the $55 because I laughed for weeks.

Not to say she didn’t see the funny side .

  • While it is funny, it’s also concerning that people are selling $55 scissors and effectively ripping people off. And for her to buy an item online without even knowing what she’s paying for. Really?!

  • Knowing it was a “joke” when I got as far as a big box I was thinking of a shredder.
