Last month I bought a notebook and registered online sometime later. Last week I got an envelope, I didn't open it though, what could be inside? Probably just a confirmation..
Well, yesterday evening I decided to open the thing so that I could throw it away.. the first thing I pull out is a plastified piece of paper (quite big) I thought that is nice! Must carry some information for when I require service.
I started reading the enclosed letter: hereby we send you a €100,- gift certificate.. (!) grabbing the sheet of plastic, turning it around: in big letters with an authenticity sticker: certificate for €100 to be spent at the following store
OK, I thougt, there must be a catch, reading the fineprint.. there isn't
How to spent €100 ($120) at an electronics store.. an MP3 player would be nice, anyone has one of those? Are they any good? They are about €170..
