    Time to buy (selected) socks again?

    7 pairs for a tenner - bargain!
    Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

    Three pairs for a pound

      I usually buy about 100 pairs of identical socks; that way I don't have the problem of never being able to find two matching socks.
      And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

          It could be a good idea to invest in the sock market, especially seeing as lots of people will be turning the heating down this winter to save money.

          Blondes might be a bad bet though as lots of contractors find their trophy wives just too expensive. I’d take out put options in blondes.

            heres a puzzle for youse.

            It's pitch black, you have 10 pairs of white socks and 10 pairs of black, all mixed up in a drawer.

            How many socks do you have to take with you, so you know you will have a pair when you get downstairs ?
