Happy memories of "writing lines" at school detention.

Happy in that you felt you had got 2/3rds of one over on the !!!!!! who had given you the detention.:D (You could get on and finish your home work when you had recovered from wrist cramp).

Does school detention, let alone writing lines, still exist?

Of course not!

The teacher would need 15 signatories from twenty different people, including Freddy Mercury, King Tut and Jesus himself.

Then it would be passed to some quango discussion committee, put to parliament via a green paper, that would mutate into a white paper, then it would be sent to a private company (in the US) for market research and assessment. Then back via the same system into the teachers inbox, by that time the pupil would have graduated university and be a father of 3..:rotfl:

Has anyone seen the 'Promotional Packs' anywhere? I've brought some from Tesco for £3, but it doesn't mention the £10... x

it doesnt make a sense to me. you have to send a pen, proof of purchase and an empty promotional pack.
surely then, you can claim only one pen for a whole pack, isnt it, because you only got one receipt, hm???

LOL thats £4 p/h, less than minimum wage. Why not put an hours overtime in work instead! :rotfl:

Some people do not work(unemployed/carers/disabled/job seeking)and so can not put in an hours overtime.

People do things like this and say........daily clicks, because they want the end result, not because it excites them

I have just phoned Bic and got through to customer services and they had no clue. She did say that people could enter as many times as they liked but she wasn't sure about anything else. I am waiting for a call from the marketing team for full clarification.

What is the customer services number? Have looked of their website but can't seem to find it. Perhaps if lots of people start phoning them about it they'll have to clarify?

I believe it is as simple as:
Buy pack
Wear out pen
Send one pen, with receipt (after 30 days)
Get £10

I can see no reason this can not be done every 30 days, it does not say limited to one £10 per customer?

yes i know but you cannot use all 10 pens from the pack, you have to keep buying another packs isnt it?
