The "Limited Edition" line went unnoticed when I bought it and I fear I may have inadvertently deprived a collector.

It’s worked as it’s now on the internet, shared by you

I guess it’s to cause dopey people to think they must buy it now as it won’t be about next week


It’s like products that have “new” on them. Wtf

My wife just bought something from the Debenhams website. Apparently if she signed up for their Cash Back malarkey she would have received £16.87 on this order. You can be a member of their Cash Back for £15 a month.

Yeah. No, thanks.

Clever because you have to keep buying stuff you wouldn’t buy to get anything back

I can imagine it now... Lad picks up some love sleeves as he's feeling lucky on his 3rd date. Things go well. Dinner was good, a nice romantic riverside walk. He suggests they go back to his place. She obliges.
Fast forward an hour. Things are getting steamy. 'Ah!' he thinks, he's come prepared. He's ready for this moment. He reaches for the box perched on the bedside table he purchased earlier... Silence & shame fills him.

Corn removal plasters.


In all seriousness though, who on earth has ever wanted limited edition Flash/condoms? What a strange concept.

If it's limited endurance then I'm in.

And not long after, back out again.

Marketing crap example : “New and Improved”. Well, which? It’s either new OR improved, which is it...
