    yep, got it up to £15.20 exc. VAT.

    Rather not change memory sticks, its the right size and it looks good, something my mum was keen on.

    CDs are a good idea i spose, worse case scenerio. Was hoping for something a bit more interesting though.

    Anyone got any other ideas?

    If i was scan reading this i would take your free shipping away for taking the p*** with the offer
    Or it should be upped to around &#163;50 minimum order

    The minimum is &#163;20. If people don't follow that they get the offer taken away from them. If scan wanted the offer minimum to be &#163;50, that's what they'd set it at, but it's &#163;20. Adding things to an order to make it &#163;20 isn't taking the "p***", it's abiding the terms of the offer.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    It's a good thing you're not Scan then

    DavidM has already seen it and AFAIK he's had no problem with it.

    Edit: beaten to it.

    Its things like this that would actually make scan happier about the offer, because your looking for a way to give them more money than you would have normally.

    How about getting yerself a dual layer DVD burner and some disks.. I know it takes you way over the &#163;20 but they do rock...

    Or get some cable tidies... spare case fans, a new CPU cooler... ooh, how about a removable SATA caddy thing, they're bloody top sante they are!

    PATA -> SATA adapters are always handy too. And the one on Scan is about &#163;15 less than they charge for *exactly* the same item in Maplin
