Little Victories
I recently received a £2 voucher from a supermarket after complaining vociferously about the poor quality of their own-brand Rich Tea biscuits, which I spent on more tasty, tasty biscuits. Tell us about your trivial victories that have made life a tiny bit better.

and another escaping France story
My landlady gave me half the deposit in cash as I was about to leave, and said the other half would follow when she'd inspected the flat. I waited. She kept saying it would be coming, but after about a month I began to suspect she was just hoping that I'd drop the matter as it would probably cost me far more money to take her to court in a country I no longer lived in than to just drop the matter.
I noticed her email address was @[organisation], where [organisation] was who I was working for, and I was still on good terms with one of my bosses there.
My boss who was one of the ~5 highest ranking people in [organisation], and [organisation] is not small.
She paid up pretty fast once I got him involved.
