Sweet... free porn. Er, I mean, the Criterion edition of L'Avventura or summit.

cd-wow are pretty reliable. And quite fast. And cheap. And now free. Cheers NF.

aw fuck im already signed up darn them

Awesome! Thanks for that NiteFall.

New free stuff over at play.com . Get yourself some free tat in the form of a Pirates Of the Caribbean coin thingy just put PIRATES into the voucher box when you click through to checkout (on the right) and it'll be reduced to £0.00 with free P&P. Yes it's tat. But it's free eBay sellable tat!

Cheers for that. I've just ordered mine.
I do love free tat.

Thanks NiteFall. Just ordered mine aswell.

Free tat is my favourite kind of tat. Who doesn't like free tat in fact?

hum....... having problems getting the free tatty tat.

Ooh, I'll 'ave a bit of that. Cheers for posting it NiteFall!

EDIT: And to contribute to the thread a bit more, there's a website called Free UK Stuff which tells you about all of the free crap you can get from various sites. Ossum.

Eyyyy! Free tat. Love it. Cheers Nitefall!

Well I received my free tat. And very nice it is too.

... And now i've put it on ebay.... (if you're interested)

What are the odd's some mug'll buy it?

I was planning on doing the same with mine, but haven't got round to doing it yet. Hmm, maybe I should charge a finders fee for pointing you its direction.

I hope the 40p the bid is currently up to won't change your life in a negative way!

That's me who's bid 40p!!!

However, having just read this thread and how to get it free... I am retracting my bid

Sorry old bean!!!

I can't help but wonder why they would do that... but gawdblessum.

Doh!
Maybe I should've put the link in a different thread.

Maybe. Oh and I would perhaps make a 'not actual size' note on eBay, it is considerably smaller than that.

I thought about that... but i figure: It's a photograph.... Photos are never actual size. ....unless stated.

When I was bidding on it I made the assumption that the photo was significantly larger than the actual coin.

But there'll always be one ninny out there waiting to jump all over you because you didn't state that it wasn't actual size, so probably best to cover your arse.

Just so it's known, the first promotion never did happen Nitefall, and I had osts pointing to it!

I know. Not my fault though. Don't blame me. Don't hate the player, hate the game. etc, etc...

No I dont balme you whatsoeve, just know that they're not always staright with things.

I'll be alot more cautious if I use them again

-m0r

Mwa Ha Ha Ha Haaaa!!

It appears they don't want to send me my free Pirates coin. I ordered it days ago and it's not been dispatched, which is most odd for play.com

DVD rentals this time from www.screenselect.com although I'll admit I have an ulterior motive. If you give me your email address and I send you an invite you get 6 free rentals and I get some free as well. If you're interested PM me your email address.

I have a coke bottle with a free iTunes download code on it. I don't use iTunes and don't plan to, so the first person to PM me can have the code and get themselves a free song.

You have to register on www.coca-cola.co.uk/music and enter the code for validation on iTunes.

>>>> Still available - no one wants it?

As mentioned elsewhere free tickets for advance screenings of Children Of Men.

Like they'd ever have an advance screening for anything in exeter. Weak. Nearest one is Bournemouth or Cardiff. Rubbish.

Right, clearly no-one wants it, but I've got another one now. I'm just going to post the codes here. If you want a free iTunes download just register the codes on coca-cola/music website and you can have 2 free songs. If they don't work, someone else had them already.

I got one of those codes before, too, and the darned registration process never worked right!

Thanks man

Not a problem.

OK, this one isn't exactly free stuff but it's a good discount. I have a coupon on ebay. Maybe everyone gets it. If you're paying for something with paypal and the sale price is £60 or over, enter the code CUDDLYTOY2 for a £10 discount. Offer expires on the 21st of september so be quick. Can't guarentee it will work, but gove it a go if you hapen to be buying something.

If you need cheap train tickets over the next couple of weeks (and you're based in London, pretty much) then go to printtraintickets.com.

I find it annoying that they don't cover any journeys I'm likely to make, so I suggest that everyone exploit this website as much as possible before the prices go up.

Not really free stuff, but this appeared in my email inbox earlier this week




I don't have any moneys so I can't take advantage of this. I'm sure some of you lovely people can though.

I'd use it if HMV wasn't being such a cock at the moment.

Damn you, HMV code! Work! Work, dang it!

Papa wants 20% off Darkplace!

Oh, I have to sign in, first.

Wait a minute, even with the discount, it's more expensive than Play.com? You almost got my money, HMV, almost, but not this time!

Not just me it's been pissing off then. I want to spend some money!

I've just been sent quite a nice grovelly letter to the effect of 'oops - the dvd you want to order is out of stock so instead of informing you we just hoped you wouldn't notice', which has appeased me somewhat - good job it was a pre-pre birthday present for my aunt whose birthday isn't actually til December.
However I just placed an order and had to refresh the page then check my orders list to make sure it had actually gone through - the website definitely still being arsey.

If you buy the Independent this week (three out of the five issues between Monday and Friday) you can get a free World Cinema DVD from Play.com.

The Films up for grabs are:

Hotel Rwanda
Jean De Florette
Manon Des Sources
A Very Long Engagement
Amores Perros
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Tsotsi
Fitzcarraldo
Breathless
Amelie

You can find out more here: Independent Play.com Offer.

Ooooh! Cheers Paul!

Damn it! I want to see Jean de Florette again! How come you guys get those films for free, and we have to pay $30 for a used copy?

Well, if you have a region-free DVD player and are very nice to someone here who either A: Buys the Independent, or B: Has access to the codes they'll be printing in the paper (especially if someone posts them on the webbernet, hint, hint), then you'll probably be able to get one for the cost of p&p...

True. The Internet must have codes! It always does!

Once in a while, if you buy a paper around here, you get a coupon for a "free" bottle of fruit-flavoured tap water, if you buy another at the full price, which is about $1.65.

Cool.
If the paper's 70p, that's just £2.10 for a dvd!! *
I'm thinking of getting Amelie. Although it's a cool stylish film, it is the better of the 2 that I've seen (the other being crouching tiger) Can anyone recommend another film I may want from the list?.... Please use the phase 'if you like [film I may have seen already] then you'll love [film from the list]. ... or something.


*[edit] though I suppose you could just wander into Smiths & make a note of the codes.

If you like Jean de Florette, then you'll love Manon des Sources.

Sorry.

Seriously, Hotel Rwanda, Tsotsi and Amelie are all good choices, in my opinion.

Well, if you liked Amelie, you may consider picking up A Very Long Engagement, which was the next film that Audrey Tautou and Jean-Pierre Jeunet worked together on. It is equal measures whimsy, war, mystery and romance, set against the golden fields of Brittany and the deathly-pale mire of the trenches of the First World War.

Think i'll still go for Amelie... I don't know much about world cinema, but I know what I like.

I will look out for the others though. Cheers.

The terminology changed from foreign film to world cinema pretty quickly.
