Might be a silly questionšŸ¤” but has anyone ever bought one of these canes? It looks like it would be useful to me in my situation with RA with fold out bit to ease me out of chairs etc. A quick Google throws up this cane from various suppliers but the all to be the same one as Ideal. Can anyone recommend onešŸ˜² I know madness on this forum to ask but nothing venturedšŸ˜µā€šŸ’«šŸ˜ƒ
 
I donā€™t want to know what heā€™s feeling in his ā€œmarsupial pocketā€. State of that.

He reckons it was -5. in Manchester last week. The temperature never went below freezing.

Heā€™s constantly lying about the temperature to try and sell the latest tatty blanket or radiator heā€™s flogging. He keeps banging on about it being -4/-5 up North. I live here and it bloody wasnā€™t, the cretin. Reckons his hovel is constantly freezing cold, does our Bet never put the Economy 7 on or what? Youā€™d think with the amount of heaters heā€™s claimed to have bought over the years, his house would feel like a sauna.

If IW do returns, which probably they do, try buying one, and if it suits you, you've got a deal, and if not, no worries. And if it doesn't look as good, or as sturdy, again, send back. Nothing ventured. I think it's mainly the sellers that annoy the viewers, even if some items leave a lot to be desired. Good luck with your choice :)

I've got RA as well but not advanced enough to need a cane yet so I haven't bought one. My late mum had one just to give a bit of stability and she got one from a stall in a shopping centre that sold mobility aids, it wasn't expensive and she could test it first.

Er, no - it's definitely the products as well for me.

Poundland quality at John Lewis prices šŸ¤©
  • Cheap Chinese watches sold at inflated prices with insane pretend-y RRPs - heirlooms!
  • Endless roster of future-landfill Temu-sourced electricals - better than brand ones which work!
  • Knock-off perfumes ā€“ 'I was inspired to buy you the real one darling, but didn't - happy xmas!'
  • Snake oil - miracle/ancient cures the NHS doesn't want you to know!
  • Sweatshop fashion - it might even be designer 'cos the label doesn't say it's not!
  • Beauty products ā€“ save on vet bills since some can make lame dogs walk again!
  • Drones - why pay Ā£15 for a Ā£15 drone when you can pay IW Ā£169.99 for it instead!
  • Toys - relive your childhood by buying your grandkids toys last popular in 1965!
And of courseā€¦
  • Clearance branded stock - who cares if it expired in 2017, it's got the brand on it!

I think you are being a bit unfair on Poundland
