    and it wouldn't be X Mas without Malcolm ;)

    At the end of the day though, the pagans got their own back after the christians stole their festival, after all, who are kids more interested in - jesus or Santa (anagram of Satan :eek:)?

    Beware of fat men in red coats (especially if they're called Malcolm).

    Don't sell your soul to Santa. :money:

    I had a similar experience in Asda a few months ago.

    I'd bought a PS3 computer game, the box was sealed. Got home, unopened it and discovered a blank CD where the game disc should be.

    Took it back. They replaced it no problem, it wasn't the first time it'd happened.

    Some crafty bleeder had been buying the games, very finely cutting the seal at the base of the packaging, jiggling the game discs out and replacing them with a blank CD to give the box a genuine "disc rattle" ... then taking the discs back to Asda for a refund "bought the wrong game" etc etc. The staff then put the return back out on display.

    They were really apologetic.

    how bizarre, we have just returned from the usa and whilst there bought some dvds from wall mart with exactly the same issue... have to say they replaced the dvds without quibbling.

    The "we" in that sentence does not apply to everyone. I imagine lots of agnostics/atheists see Christmas as a time to get p**sed, and join in the commercialism of it all, expecting presents as a matter of course. That's their choice as is they way you choose to celebrate yours.
