One of the problems with my current car (a 1992, 150k mile Mercedes 190E) is that the radio won’t pick up FM, which renders all the various FM transmitters I have for iPods useless. I’ve been looking for a cassette adapter for a little while and on Saturday I saw one in Tesco for £6.97. Considering Maplin in Worcester didn’t seem to sell them and PC World sell them for a ludicrous £14.99, the Tesco price seemed like a great deal.

However, I’ve just done a quick search on Google Product Search (sidenote: which is a terrible name compared to its previous name, Froogle) and I apparently could have got one for 79p. Damn.
