Yes - I know - I was gullible. 2 Years ago I fell for the sales pitch and spent £1500 to go in one of those supermarket business card dispensers. One call in two years. >:( >:(
It's renewal time in month or so. Anybody want to be a fly on the wall ? ;D ;D ;D
Cheers
PS Perhaps I should charge anybody that wants to listen in - that way I could get some of my money back!!

If I learned anything from Joe Polish my investment in his strategies more than paid for itself many times over in that I learned how not to use those kind of useless advertising schemes. You have my sympathy as I too fell for this kind of thing in the past.

Yes, this has been discussed before. I fell for it too, however I managed to get out of it without paying the full amount due, and still got the two year deal. In order to attempt to get something out of it, I regularly pop into the supermarket and grab a handfull of cards, which by contract they have to keep supplied.

i had a chap round earlier this year trying to sell me post ofice television space( tv with just the adverts in the post office)..................it was a good sales pitch, then i said to him do u mind if i ring a couple of companys on your laptop(part of his presentation).........well, he couldnt say no, so i rang them two up, they both said to me keep my money in my pocket............i said thanks, then asked the salesman what he would do in this situation if he was me..................red faced he left within 3 mins...lol...lol

Well I've just received THE PHONE CALL!! I was quite polite considering! I wonder how the poor s*d trying to get others to sign up for renewal felt after I was through with him??
Never mind. Case closed. Time to move on. :)
-
I fell for this one too :( I stopped paying for it but I think I'll be made to pay at some point.
-
If you dont count my time I think I recovered my money.
However like Dave I go in and collect the cards.
And place them in other outlets for free

Cheers Ian and Dave, I'm off to collect some now and hopefully make some money from them
