A little food for thought on a Friday tea time but you might need w**e 😂....
I get a lot of cheap dining chairs that I quote for, they can even be sold to us from a fancy shop but they are likely to be imported. Meaning a chunk of that hard earned money of yours goes abroad.
Given the state of our economy we can't always afford to recover and cheap new chairs seem appealing. A hit of adrenaline buying them and it's affordable. We used to buy better furniture made here, save up and do things properly.
It's important to put money back into our country it's families. We need to change our habits.
Buy new v Reupholster...
Thin faux leather/ high quality vinyl
Thin cheap foam/ quality dense foam
Machine made/ hand machined by a Brit
Cheap initial cost/ expensive
Short life and landfill/ long life
Completely imported/few products imported
Buy again/keep for three times as long or more!
Most of your money abroad/ most money to Brits
It's too easy to look the other way but all our decisions have consequences. I'm not saying we are perfect because we import lots of essentials but we should try and do better.
And now for more w**e. 🍷🍷 Cheers!
