Free Memoirs of a Geisha novel with tomorrow's Sunday Times

Hmmm, couldn't decide whether to post this here or 'Freebies', but thought the purists might flame me in the latter because it does involve a purchase! ;)

Anyway, there's a free copy of Arthur Golden's Memoirs of a Geisha, the novel that inspired the Oscar-nominated film, with tomorrow's Sunday Times. I get the impression that it doesn't actually accompany the paper, rather that it's a voucher or send-off coupon, nevertheless, a nice to have! :D

    Thanks - I'd been planning to buy a copy of this!
    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.

    I read this book about 3 years ago and it is one of the best books I have ever read.

    Do not despair

    You can buy a new copy from independant sellers on amazon for about £3.25. i am gonna do this cos the paper is £1.80 and when you consider postage it will work out about the same.

    Hope this is of some use to you.

    Hate it when i miss out on a bargain :eek:

    Aw bless my boyf broughtme the coupon back from work yeah so only
    £1.21 for post to pay :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :T
