This morning, The King of Gift Tokens hereby announces complete and full victory over the forces of WH Smith Nuisance Giftcard Fifteen Pounds.
Victory was swift, and brutal. Despite the incursion of the Giftcard some 15 months ago, the King was not in the slightest bit bothered by its presence and disregarded it in a regal manner. This morning, at a time of the King’s choosing, a comprehensive analysis and cross-referencing of assets was performed.
The King’s imperial good self drew up a ‘wish list’ of books which he was thinking about reading. Futhermore he then proceeded to cross-check the prices of each of these books, in their various formats, across several key battlegrounds. Amazon, WH Smith, HMV, and Tesco.
A short while later the King identified two books which were cheaper at WH Smith than in any other store. Furthermore, the combined cost of these two books was exactly £15.01 – enough not only to secure free delivery of the analogue printed books by analogue Royal Mail King’s Postal Horses, but also to ensure that only the token sum of one New English Pee was payable from the King’s Treasury.
The value-for-money obtained was of the highest possible excellence. The Giftcard’s annihilation was complete and total. The King declares victory, and warns the remaining forces of Tesco (£28.73), M&S (£21.64), HMV (£25), and To-Be-Allocated (£20 and £5) that they too will be dealt with in the same ruthlessly excellent manner.
By Order Of The King,
