I've just finished working for the Post Office helping launch their new lottery game. Part of it was trying to flog badges and T-shirts for the participating stores to give to their staff to wear.Not many staff took this idea up(may have had something to do with the slogan PLAY ME NOW-£1 PER GO emblazoned across the chest ).Whatever we didn't get rid of,we could keep. Yippee. I am moving house soon. I do not need 96 extra T-shirts around the place.
So I decided to put them on Freecycle.Got an email from someone who wanted them-replied back Great,come tomorrow morning-here's the time,here's the address. And then having sent it realized. This was not 1 email...this was 1 email folder containing emails from 19 DIFFERENT people.All of whom I had told to turn up on the doorstep at the same time to collect their T-shirts..... there would have been a queue round the block if I hadn't noticed....
