Such a sad pouty-face, Susan!

It IS annoying to be a loyal customer & see great deals offered only to new customers - does loyalty count for nothing?

It was either that picture or one where someone is punched. I actually believe that small businesses that do this do not think through the promotion. I saw someone on a blog promoting it and the person is well known and not realise they where upsetting those that were paying top dollar. Next post will have a happy face Duncan.
