Bought the Special Edition of LotR last week..all fine and dandy.
Got home, and as always for some reason I have a gander at the back of the disc.
Scratched.
Oh.My.God.
So, I took it back and asked for another one.
(Well would you pay £25 for a scratched disc?)
The bird behind the counter was right stroppy and after changing the DVD she just walked off! Hello, I wanted to ask you if you had the Muppet Christmas Carol in stock. You silly bint.
AND! OH!
She kept my recipt!
Anyways. Got home. Unwrapped the new boxset..
Scratches.
Oh.My.God.
OH.MY.GOD, the daft cow kept my reciept!
So, yet again I take it back..but this time to a different Woolworths.
The dude was all fine and dandy about me changing the set, even checked the discs for me.
Get home. Happy.
Decide to read the back of the box.
Ripped.
Oh.My.God.
What the hell is it with Woolworths? Do they only sell crap or something?
I'm not going to take this one back. I'm just going to sulk and prey New Line release a massive box set with all three films on it.
Last thing I ever buy from Woolworths. They suck.
Oh and Mr Woolies, if you're reading this.
You're a cockface.

Yeah, but I wanted to watch it that night.
If I got it from their site, I'd have to wait like a year.

That sounds like quite a good idea, you should try it. With the Firemens' strike at the moment they'd be screwed!
Whereas Mr Burger King just had a name that screamed 'become a fast food chain owner!'

Actually, the only reason I went to Woolworths was because everyone else in town had sold out.
I didn't pick that one either, the fool behind the counter picked it...I know it's not Woolworths fault for the disc being scratched. But it is their fault for employing the $%%^^&^&^*&* who kept my reciept, being all stroppy, and not offering to check the discs before giving me the new one
