Dear retailers,

When putting on special offers for items that will obviously be given as Christmas gifts and labelling them up, please don't make the labels removable only via blowtorch. You knobs.

I personally don't care, but my missus is in the other room, wrapping up presents, and all I can hear is "I can't get the label off".

I've always found Cash Converters labels to be the worst, especially when stuck to cardboard. Impossible to get off cleanly. Not that I buy presents from there but that's not the point.

everyones a winner!

Free items on the front of the Beano, Dandy and Dr Who mag are the worst. When peeling 'em off in the library they tear the sub-orphan grade toilet paper covers, and make baby-timelord cry.
