Tassimo machine article errors

Think I'm putting this in the wrong place on the forum but couldn't work out where to put it and wanted to make you guys aware of it.
The newsletter has a link to a Tassimo machine for £35 (which I've just ordered). However the article is quite misleading as it has a couple of errors.
1) "Although John Lewis charges £3 for delivery, it doesn't include a two-year guarantee" should read "DOES include a 2 year guarantee"
2) "Don’t forget, you’ll need some Tassimo pods before you can make any drinks. You'll find them in most supermarkets and they're usually about £4 for 16 pods – making each fancy coffee about 25p."
The maths is good but... you require 2 pods per drink making it closer to 50p per drink.

ref jl delivery, its free to any john lewis or waitrose store.
you should get a discount on pods when you register the machine @tassimo
also the pods are any 3 boxes for £10 in asda.
I would like to add, you wont regret getting one. I got another model about 6 months ago and love the coffee it makes.0 -
I had a tassimo machine and at first I loved it but went off it after a while I found it quite dear so ended up buying the Nescafe cappuccino skinny ones you get 10 in a box and I bulk buy when on offer for between £1.25-£1.49 a box and I treat myself to a Costa coffee on my way to work every Saturday and Sundayhave now given up smoking since feb 13th 2014 loving the money I'm saving0
