It&#8217;s half price so you&#8217;re doing Stuff Doer a favour by saving him money.<\/p>\n<p>So you get home, show off your beautiful new purchase, point out how much money you&#8217;ve saved and, because you&#8217;re so clever, you&#8217;re going to save even more as, if he orders the door wood along with the window wood, you&#8217;ll be saving on delivery charges.<\/p>\n<p>Cue slightly bamboozled look, but there&#8217;s no argument in that situation.
