Good spot, not sure I can justify spending £90 to gain £13 despite it being a bargain.

Choose one.

It is basically free.

As long as you're going to spend £90 in the next 10 years on Amazon, the £13 in vouchers is free.

Free:
Given or available without charge.

From the Oxford English Dictionary.

It's not you, I just have a dislike for marketing to advertise things 'free', when they are 'extra'.

'Clover Butter with 50% Free', should read, 'Clover Butter with 50% extra'.


It's not like you can go into a store, open a bottle of Pepsi that has '50% free' and just tell the incoming security "I'm just drinking the free bit". You could however argue it in court and maybe even win, but it's a bullshit marketing term that needs to be burned with fire.

[Ste]

Okay, don't have £13 free from Amazon, I don't care, makes no difference to me.

You could get three copies of the Oxford English Dictionary.
