The Girl – A staff member or random fellow shopper? The police frown on that. I was only restrained because I wanted my discount…

Sam – I have never got a 10/10 before. Does this make me a swot?

I was in Currys yesterday and used my internet phone to compare prices at Jessops. Marvellous thing, technology – but it still needs a bit of cunning to exploit it. Well done, Mr Angry – 10/10.

I’m amazed you showed such restraint. I would have hit someone.

I really would.

La Cubana Gringa – Internet on your phone? Are you a visitor from the future?

EP – Mansize?

Celeste – The same stuff they make their DVD players from then?

Sooz – if ‘getting it’ means a blank stare, then yes, they did.

Murph – Not a word of a lie. Ask at the next big store you are in. You’d be surprised… or at least I was.

It’s a lovely story Angry but I’m afraid it’s a work of fiction. Display Laptops connected to t’internet? Whatever next? Talking Dogs?

Bravo Mr Angry! Did they not get the irony of the situation?

I believe that Comet and Currys make their own staff. From flour, water and some straw.

Betty – 3 wanted to meet, the other 7 suggested things that shocked my delicate ears. There are defintely some things that I do not need to know about my work colleagues

Angry – Yes, I work in quality control at Pampers and no, we don’t do them in your size

Brilliant! I would have likely just used the internet on my phone to do the same thing…but kicking them in the nuts with their own equipment is even better. Cunning indeed!

MC Glammer – Are you expecting me to kill myself?

Dr J – NO beer, January is a dry month, until I go snowboarding in a few weeks anyway…

Oli – The guy was actually pretty helpful, he just knew nothing about his companies website.

S Hamilton – In-laws are useful for all sorts of medical experimentation as well

marycub – LCD’s are big, mine is LCD and 42 inches – feel my girth!!

Anna – Thank you, feel free to use the word panache as well.

Léonie – Santa declined to bring me the box-set this xmas, sorry.

Wendz – I am quickly learning that everything, and I mean everything, is on the Internet somewhere.

Betty – I have enough size issues on a laptop screen, not sure my ego could take watching it on a 42 inch one…

Ellie – feel free to replicate as you see fit.

Piersy – They tried selling me that but I always tell them my home insurance covers me, which it doesn’t of course.

BillyBoy – Having done the research, it was the cheapest place to buy the TV I wanted, with the added bonus of only being a few miles away.

EP – You work in the quality control department at Pampers?

Dr Clip – So close you can smell them…

Betty – The rest were women

BoT – Now THAT is a good idea, car shopping this May, so will remember it for then…

Léonie – Oooo!! Where could one get THAT box-set??

Gish – Hello. That depends entirely on how fit you are (and female).

Priceless.

Next time though, use it to show them their competitors best price. Did this to a car dealer when we bought the last Audi and the dealer nearly had a corronary. Got to sit back and listen to the shop MD shout down the line to his Audi contact about how he can get a better retail price online than the best wholesale price they give him. Made my week.

how close do you have to sit next to the screen to get full benefit of the Girls Allowed video?

In a straw poll of 10 people in my office, all of them almost wet themselves laughing at this approach.

and 3 of them would like to meet Betty.

Fancy buying a fuck off tv from a shop named after Santas favourite reindeer!

Nice use of their kit though. Respect.

I love Comet. When I bought a denon system for the bedroom, the lad asked the obligatory bit about 5 year warranty for another hundred quid?!
I politely informed him that I’d owned a fair bit of Denon in the past, and none of it had conked out in less than a decade.

HAving a flash of brilliance in an attemt to salvage his warranty commission, boy wonder replies
‘Yeah but, that was in the olden days. Naadays they don’t make stuff as good as what they used to.

Riiiight, so you’re telling me the product I’m buying’s a pile of shit then?

Naaa naaa etc.

Gotta love that Croydon education system.
