They work on the principle that "the louder we shout at you, the more likely you are to buy our products". In reality what it really happens is "the more you shout, the more likely we are to turn your advert off"

Re: My first whinge!
and what about,
" If you order by credit card within the next 30 minutes you will get over $2,000,000,000,000,000 value free"
But wait,
"Also order now and we will throw in and extra one absolutely free"
so thats two for the price of one and $4,000,000,000,000,000 in extra value all for three payments of $69.95.
And if you do not like it, just send it back within 30 day's for a full refund, minus the $59.95 postage.

Re: My first whinge!
Was put off small retailers when I went into an appliance shop to look at fridges the other month and was jumped on by a salesman who just would not bugger off.. within 5 seconds of me arriving he gave me a pen and form to fill in with all my address details and then wouldnt let me go until I had filled it out.. told him I was only prepared to pay about $900 for a fridgefreezer.. whilst he was showing me a $7k reduced to $4K... as if! ffs! who would just lop off $3K? no one.. so it was obviously overpriced on purpose... AND as soon as he realised I wasnt going to let him "phone tomorrow first thing" with all his new deals he rudely stalked off and didnt even say goodbye..
The first salesman I seriously would run over should he ever have the misfortune to walk out near me when I would be in my car!

The bloody "go-duster" and the sodding "ped-egg". Both can be conveniently shoved where the sun don't shine. Perhaps up the arse of that "citybank credit card" bloke.
