ALL!

I have secured a deal with Halfords for discounted air fresheners.

They are of the Magic Tree variety and are scented Vanilla.

They retail for £1.99, but if I can get 34,000 orders, they will sell them, exclusively to Scoobynetters, for £1.98

Please let me know if you are interested, there are only 40 orders available and demand WILL BE HIGH!

Cheers,

Brought to you in association with Blowdog group.

Blowdog,

I am concerned that you have not been paying attention during our numerous discussions, conversations, tutorials and lectures on modifications to vehicles...

You may recall that in 2000 when you took out an exclusive motor policy (with a highly reputable company) via my good self, that when modifying your vehicle with (and I quote) "a Strawberry Scented Air Freshener"...I advised that there would not be an increase in premium (statistics show that the scent of strawberries is soothing....but not to the extent of completely aneathestising (SP) you like other scented airfresheners)...however I stressed that under no condition should you attempt to drive a vehicle under the influence of Vanilla!!!!!!!

This is bound to cause numerous problems for vehicle owners as the Vanilla scented airfreshener will have to be noted on the policy as an extra and/or modification, this in turn would probably result in an increased premium (maybe as much as £0.02!) which as you will have no doubt spotted makes the so called "special deal" not so special...

I think that under the circumstances, you should re-approach the market and attempt to obtain more favourable terms...

Yours as ever..

Pirum!!

Apparently Halfords are doing them for £1.95 at the moment.

With a free set of go-faster stripes.

Also available are "On A Mission" stickers - 50p (only available to the first 100,000 customers - better be quick)

Question

Cem, is that 40 x 34,000? or have you been done again

I'm sure you'll sell them all if you throw in a bit of artwork with every order

Cem,

As a long time user of the Vanilla Magic Tree, I am especially interested in this group buy. I would love to stock up rather than having to go to Halfords to buy a new one. Please put me down for 12,000.

Cheers

Ian

P.s. Just noticed I've reached 4 figures myself, woohoo !!!

i demand proven bhp gains before i purchase
can anyone please explain to me the advantage of vanilla over spice? i also think that changing to vanilla from the IM approved 'rancid stench' jd power emblazoned dealer fit airfreshener may invalidate your warranty.

What a worthwhile group buy...but could we negotiate for 11333.33333 in pine, 11333.33333 in vanila and the remaining 11333.33333 in the green, amber and red traffic light variety?

Hope I'm not to late to come on boared with this very special offer.

I'll have one please but I have seen some other bbs with the offer price at £1.97

Oh and can I have mine with a gold chain to hang off the rearview mirror so it matches my wheels.

And some thing to catch the chocolate sauce when it runs of the vanilla.

Thanks

Ian.

ps Can I pay by VISA

I would love to join in on this one, but I'm unfortunately in the midst of a legal battle with this company...on the grounds that these are not actually "magic". That alone would be grounds for upset, but I'm also disputing their "vanilla" claim.....the one I tried tasted like ****.

Anyway.....probably already said too much...

(PS Shouldn't this be in another forum Mr Bio Dog?)

Mik - I think you got it slightly wrong. You are supposed to smoke the Vanilla one and make tea with the magic one, in the same way you do with the similarly labelled mushrooms.

p.s. you are entirely correct about the other but. I suspect it will arrive there soon

You can buy vanilla mushrooms?

As an aside - have you ever wondered what goes on in the head of a cow / sheep during mushy season? (They must inadvertently eat loads of them.......although I've never seen them making tea.....maybe THEY have though)Scary.

has anyone thought about the bhp penalty from all that extra weight generated by the air freshener. I reckon it cost me 10bhp and 4 mpg when i had one fitted.
Further i am not sure how it affects the MOT.
certainly there is an enviromental penalty to be paid.
See gordon browns latest white paper " vanilla air frsheners and their detrimanetal affect on the enviroment and positive affect on tax policy "
ps i know prescott has 2 top of the range vanilla magic trees!!
pps northampton police are installing sniffer units at accident blackspots to catch vanilla users. you have been warned!
