Not much into Nuts

Electronic circuits

I always happily give away any pretense of privacy and let people access my data for a quid or two.

It is therefore hardly surprising that I always, always use my Tesco ClubCard, even when I but a stick of chewing-gum at a gas station. Then, every three months Tesco points turn up on my doorstep as vouchers that give me money off on next purchases (1 penny for each pound spent, I think).

In return, I let Tesco know exactly how many sheets of toilet paper I use every time I wipe my butt. Seriously, this should give Tesco enough information to fire off some powerful algorithms to lure me into buying more stuff by presenting me with offers I cannot refuse.

However, I would recommend they add something that says

'IF

> 75% of items purchased

=

skimmed
low-fat
fat free
diet
light
extra-light
super-light

THEN

do not send the chap a voucher that
offers 100 extra points when you buy
Nuts or Loaded magazine'.

'cause you see, T&A? Not much popular round here, no.
