Smile shell optimax research

I had some woman ring me up at home yesterday, asking me questions on what i thought about shell optimax - she went on and on for a bit then invited me to some group meeting in stockport to discuss the fuel and future improvements etc. Then said i would get £35.00 cash for my time (1H 30mins)

I am looking forward to it - has anyone else had this?

Regards

Jud

Hopefully its better than the crappy keyring i got in the post with buying somany litres of fuel!!!!
