    Next time you order , put a note in the comments box asking for a bag of sweets or bottle opener .

    Just tell them you have never had either and you are feeling left out . :wink:

    Fool!

    You have to say 'thanks for the sweets last time' - be nice! It's the ordinary slave-bots who chose whether the sweets go in.

    :shock: :lol: I can't believe you ASKED for them!

    Is it just me?

    i seem to recall from my teenage cycling days nearly 2 decades ago that water bottles were given away as freebies for promotions and such like!


    When did they start to charge £6 a time :shock:
