Britons are falling victim to drunken online shopping binges
Quote: A growing number of Britons are shopping online after one too many drinks, resulting in the spread of a new syndrome called BLOTO (Buying Loads Of Tat Online)

...7 percent of Britons know someone who has shopped online while under the influence.

...while many UK consumers are able to curb their desires as sober high street shoppers, these inhibitions quickly disappear when they reach for the mouse in a state of intoxication.

...6 percent of all Britons know someone who has shopped online in a state of undress.

"Well, Jay was so giddy that someone named Jay was involved with this site we posted our first non-eBay listing in 3 years here at Lunarbid (we tried two items at Yahoo once upon a time, they bombed)" -Marie posting in a LunarBid thread at OTWA in 2005 wins the award for 'most moronic reason ever given for choosing a venue"

"thanks twat u must have nothing better 2 do. do u talk to all your members like that. will not be recomending your site.
