This is a question Ripped Off

A friend who worked in a second hand record shop told us about a Japanese guy who regularly bought "rare" records in their shop. One time, he was looking for a signed copy of "Never Mind the Bollocks".

They didn't have one. Four people and one magic marker later, they did. Ker-ching!

How have you been ripped off? Who did you rip off? Are you a British Gas customer?

I have vague memories of ripping off Dixons once.
They had a deal, wherein if you took in a 'personal stereo' they'd give you money off a CD player.

Around the same time, if you collected enough tokens from packets of Frosties and sent them a few quid, you could get a personal tape player.

You can see where this is going.

I got fifty quid off a CD player from that. The bloke in the shop was quite happy about it, as the advert clearly stated it was ok.

He later went on to tell me that if I took in two lightbulbs and passed them off as 'electrical equipment' I could have a free microwave.
