Not a bad return
« on: December 27, 2010, 08:44:53 PM »
Waitrose ran a campaign in November advertising Heston Blumenthal's hidden orange Christmas puddings, they were priced at £13.99 and sold out before December. Not a bad investment it would appear

 eeek: I was thinking along the lines of stockpiling Hestons next years Christmas offering creating an international shortage then making a killing on Ebay.

 Wonder if we could create an international turnip shortage. rubschin:
