    Fnar fnar.

    OK, HTF does this work?

    I've just ordered the little sockie things from Next. They'll be delivered tomorrow.

    Great. So what. Well, the thing is, I haven't had to pay for them. Apparently, by ordering them, somehow I've opened an account with Next which they've been charged to. Although Next have my address, they don't have any payment info from me.

    How weird is that?
    Swim. Bike. Run. Yeah. That's what I used to do.

    They will, in a few weeks, send you a bill.

    A few weeks later, they'll send you a 'next directory' catalogue, which they will also bill you for. Unless you'd like said catalogue it's a good idea to pay the bill by phone ASAP after receiving it, and tell them not to send you the directory!

    Until then, you've got yourself some free socks...

    Damn.

    I knew I should have used a false address.

    I got some of these from Lidl/Aldi when they had their bike bonanzas last year, got far too many of them TBH.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    I've got to agree with LiT. The socks from Primark are ridiculously thin and cheap!

    I ended up buying like nine pairs of socks (white) for £4.50. It's almost theft! :lol:
