BEAT THE CREDIT CRUNCH AND LAUGH! This book takes the art of acquiring the freebie to a whole new level of absurdity. Discover the art of the entertaining email each craftily designed to garner goodies for absolutely nothing. Delight in the fun of strange experiments, attacks by penguins and all manner of fishy tales, dreamt up by a zany man on the make. Enjoy the weird and wonderful replies and marvel at the goodies that arrive through the post! Whether he's playing the system or just playing games, James Spence demonstrates his comic genius via this uniquely entertaining book. *****, 'The author has clearly spent years plaguing companies with his idiotic requests for freebies, could this be where the global meltdown started?', If ever a situation was to arise when an author was to be called upon to demonstrate clairvoyance then we should look no further than James Spence. Five years ago when we were being offered money by banks as if it were going out of fashion James shunned these appraoches and embarked on a frugle scheme which has seen only himself and Sir Fred Goodwin benefiting from these troubled times. His plan was so simple that even a chimp with a crayon could not fail with it. Armed only with a computer, a catalogue of local, national and international companies and an arsenal of characters he went about requesting t-shirts by recounting tales of adventure/ misadventure. This plan was so successful that it appears that Messr. Spence quickly took anything that any company would offer him to his financial gain. I came across this book by reading about it in a Scottish national newspaper and then by chance I heard the author on the radio. I took this as a sign to buy and buy I did. *****

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
