Personally, I doubt I'd get anywhere near to appreciating the difference in performance terms on the road.

I've got one credit card that has never had interest paid on it. Touch wood, that continues. 
As for brake pads, I've got some replacement red stuff ceramics coming over from the US as we speak, courtesy of another forum member who has a mate over there. Still waiting on a final figure but it looks like I'll be getting fronts and rears for roughly what I paid for fronts alone a year or so ago.
Good timing for me. The fronts will need replacing within the next few months I think.

And yes, you're right about seizing the opportunity when these little deals come along. Mind you, I think joining this forum has cost me more than I've saved.
