Help Support ShoppingTelly:

I don't do Christmas in my house at all, not a tree, a bauble or card is on display, because by Christmas morning I've had enough!

I work in retailing and we are already deep into Christmas, in December I will work 07.30 to 20.30 six days a week.

Christmas eve, as I don't have family or children, I'm the one that works late to set up the Boxing day sale and I'm the one to open the store on Boxing day morning and there's always a customer that says 'Isn't it a shame you have to open on Boxing day?'

Well if people stayed at home and ate leftovers instead of shopping we wouldn't have to flippin' open!!
 
TSV are no longer special they are usually just to draw you into buying something of inferior quality to the normal priced items
 
Well I was hoping to get away for Christmas this year again but it is in some doubt.The travel company have been very upfront and told me they will be in touch before the balance is due.If I stay at home will just have to knuckle down and get on it cannot be helped, after a year of challenges this is a drop in the ocean!

As usual, they don't tell you the one thing that everyone needs to know - - - how long will the batteries last? And they haven't answered this online either, 2 people have asked so far, yet they've answered other questions.

This can only mean one thing - - - the batteries last hardly any time.

What a shambles.

Haven’t they said the usual, if an item requires batteries Q supply them with the product?
So with this TSV we kindly send you 12 with the light strands and 1 with the remote.

Should last a day then, as they always supply cheap batteries, never branded,

BTW did you know that the CR2025 battery they provide for the remote means that it is 20mm diameter and 2.5mm thick.

There are very similar batteries called CR2032 (3.2mm) and CR2016 (1.6mm) but they are all the same voltage so sometimes you can substitute them if they will fit.
