WH Smiths are doing a promotion at the moment. Buy a magazine, they give you a free copy of The Times newspaper and then give you a further 40p off. So my Quick and Easy Magazine this morning cost me only £2.95. I don't know how they can do this offer - doesn't really make any sense. I mean are you going to turn down 40p off your magazine for nothing. You don't have to read the free Times either.... just bin it, but then The Times is actually a paper that is usually worth reading as it usually has some decent content unlike newspapers like The Sun.
When I was at college doing marketing classes, a large piece of emphasis was placed on the newspaper that you read every morning, it helped to define your socio-economic demographic. Not reading a daily paper completely throws the Marketeers!
As most people use their blogs for a good old rant now and then, let us just say at this time that I'm ready at the moment to Kill Empire Direct and their repairs people "Solutions" of Newquay. All I can say right now is my TV is buggered and I'm sick of Solutions missing appointments. As soon as I get home today I'm going to write a nasty stinking sarcastic letter of complaint as I've just about had it with them [grrrrr].
