Ally 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Going to a black tie thing in a few weeks, but need to buy myself a Tux. Was thinking of hiring one like I have in the past, but £40 odd pound for one night is a bit daft considering I could buy one and use it countless times. Anyone know any relatively cheap places to get them from? Not bothered about getting anything stupidly pricey from Armani or anything, just a bog standard one! Cheers.

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Don't bother hiring one, you can get a George one from Asda for £49.00 You could wear it twice and chuck it in the bin and it would still work out better value than a hired one. My brother got one before Christmas, they look alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother got one before Christmas, they look alright. Great stuff cheers, i'll pop down and have a look. That was my exact thinking with the hired one, and if you get any stains on it you'll probably have to pay a fine or something on top. If you stain a cheap bought one, as you say, it can just be binned. Mint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
