you know you spend far too much money on Optimax when.....
 

The bloke in your local shell garage says......

'I think you should get a diesel mate!'

:)

I've been invited to my local garages Christmas do this year, wonder why that was!? :p

Anonimity is certainly not credited to the driver of a subaru :)

My garage ring round the local hospitals if I haven't been in for 3 days.

Reminds me of when we ran out of petrol in a Porsche 911 and spluttered into the nearest petrol station and brimmed it with SUL.

Woman behind the counter said she'd never seen so much petrol go into one car in one go :eek:

Must admit I was stood by the pump for what seemed to be an enternity - and the cost wasn't far from £100 :cry:

I've got my own pump :Whatever_

I've become a hermit crab.......................:)

Can't whinge too much now that my local has just dropped to 86.9p/litre! I'll take any old election sweetener me!!!

Ed :thumb:

general question:

why do i keep reading about owners on here talking about trading to a diesel ?
because of the consumption of the scooby?

Hope you've got a Shell Points card chaps - get yourself some little treats like £10 gift vouchers for places like Next.

........................ for every £400 you spend on petrol!! lol :D


Cheers,

. . . you're named on shell (UK)'s business plan as a key stakeholder. :p

This last statement period I have got 3,485 points! :eek2:

your vomit smells like petrol to...........

Optimax is even better when the company you work for pays for it, including Saturdays. :thumb::D

Bloody hell - you lot must earn a few quid.

I only fill the scoob up once a month...

i use a fuel saver. :Whatever_

Bloody hell I wish more like once a week... if I'm not wearing my lead boots:p

Never had a comment from a petrol station but when the barmaid in the pub opposite the college where I used to work had my pint already pulled as I walked through the door, I started to think perhaps I should spend an occasional lunchtime in the staff canteen!
(That thought didn't last long!)

i will know when ive spent enough when i have enough optimax points to pay for my halford pro tool set lol

Once a week? Every other day, more like! My record is three times in a day :(

how do i get one of these magical points cards, i spend about £40 a week on the damn stuff, so i may as well get something back! It has happily dropped from 89.6 a litre to 86.6 a litre in the past week so that's something to be pleased about :freak3:

James

Thanks for the Link Ian, just registered and reckon I should just about have enough plus points to fly to Australia next crimbo!!!

Ed

Shell sent me a new pluspoints card with Optimax written on it. I also got a welcome to the "Optimax" club letter - I am now entitled to double the bonus pluspoints as regular users. I spent 85 quid in petrol on Monday alone :eek:

diesel?
 

i have the answer! do what i do, have a diesel mondeo and a sti ra v8!!
and on ****ty days (now) the scooby stays in the garage........mmmmmmm warm and clean!! :)

Only had scooby 2 week and lady in the Shell garage said "I think you should get a pluspoints card....cos you'll be here a lot won't you"

:)

Although Now I put petrol in every other week....but only drive the scooby at weekends.

Yeah - and because we drive Scooby's we should have a couple of hundred quid's worth by the end of the month !!!!!:lol1:

You should try Sainsburys SUL....only 81.9! Doesn't stop them tryin to force a necter card down my throat each time I go in though!!

After posting on this thread yesterday I subsequently worked out I spend between £4000-£5000 a year on Optimax so reckon I could almost buy a suit at next with my points... :idea:
