We're getting loads of price shoppers  at the minute, all wanting it done for next to nothing, one guy rang me the other day saying he had a 3 bedroom house in Gosforth and he'd been quoted £50 to do all his carpets ..... could I do it for any less!!!

Errrrr.................no, bye!

I'd have offered to bonnet it and charged a slightly lower rate?
