At the Student’s Union a week or so back I picked up a leaflet which turned out to be a coupon for a half pint of Guinness Red. On the reverse were the terms and conditions which contained this line;
“Please do not attempt to redeem against any other product as refusal to accept may cause embarrassment and delay”.
Click here to see it for yourself. I love that they thought it was worth putting on the leaflet. I just hope this isn’t part of the ‘warning! this coffee may be hot’, corporate culture; you now have to warn people that they might embarrass themselves. Maybe their new pint glasses will read, ‘warning! the contents of this glass may result in an awkward trip to the doctor for your best mate’s sister’.
