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.

Expired discount voucher
A few months ago I was sent a £15 voucher by a clothing firm to thank me for my continued custom, according to the accompanying letter. I could use the voucher with an order by post, or use the voucher's code on the company's website.
I forgot about it until recently, and tried to use the voucher while placing an order on the website. The voucher code was not recognised, so I wrote an e-mail to the company, asking what I needed to do to use it.
I received a reply the next day, pointing out the blindingly obvious expiry date printed on the voucher (yeah, I'd missed it because I'm a moron), but offering to apply a £15 credit to my next order anyway. So I used it to score a £45 sweater for £30 instead.
It's a comfy sweater.

It's this kind of provocative controversy that is ruining the internet.
