Little Victories
I recently received a £2 voucher from a supermarket after complaining vociferously about the poor quality of their own-brand Rich Tea biscuits, which I spent on more tasty, tasty biscuits. Tell us about your trivial victories that have made life a tiny bit better.

First line, second paragraph
"Being as I do enjoy not having a phlegm filled pint I'm keeping this factoid in reserve until I get really shoddy service in a pub"
It's not intended as a twatty maneuver, more as a reserve 'little victory' (hence the title) for when someone in a pub or shop with a card machine does something deserving of a commuppance.
If it helps my case, I'm the sort of person who points out pricing errors in my favour in shops or picks up stuff that other people have knocked off shelves. I spent several years as a shop assistant, I know how annoying it is when people dick you around when you've done nothing wrong. That said, if someone deliberately pisses me off I'll give them both spunky barrels.
