Abusing freebiesA friend of mine recently attended a 'Champaign Lunch', where he was compelled drink as much fizzy stuff as he could between the first and last courses. In an ideal world we'd ask restaurant staff to tell us stories about fatties stuffing themselves at All You Can Eat places, but we recognise that our members don't all work in the catering trade, so for the rest of you - tell us something about abusing freebies. BTW: Bee puns = you fail.

BainsSurrey'sOr something similar. This post involves drink. As do most of my freebie stories - maybe i should check into AA. Ho hum.
I like my freebies, and i'd forgotten about this one. There is a well-known website that members list the best deals they've managed to lay their mitts on for others to abuse.
Now, that supermarket chain that's third to the other 2 ran a promotional vouchery thing last year some time allowing folk to get x amount of pounds off of their order of food. Specifically beer and wine. That was the deal.
All de rigeur.
Except they forgot to tell the website folks exactly how the deal worked. Cue the ability to stack vouchers on the website.
Oops.
So, for the princely sum of £10 i managed to secure the following:
2 x big bottles of Moet & Chandon
1 x Blackwoods Vodka [check the price, people!]
1 x 21yo Glenfiddich Havana Reserve [whoop]
1 x big crate of Guinness
Anyways, the deal was rescinded not long after that. The folks realised the screwup.
But i got that delivered to my door. For £10. Now that was a freebie-and-a-half.
