I was ALMOST duped into taking out a membership for the Gourmet Society today, a nice offer came through for a year membership at 30 quid.

Very glad I Googled the shit of the potential rip-off-merchants. Just go have a read on the This Is Money Blog.

The Society try to get you to join BEFORE you know how many restaurants (Which you’d actually dine in) are in your area. As it turns out there are insufficient numbers to make it anywhere near worthwhile in Wales; and to boot the offers are (According to the reviews) never as good as the advertisement makes out.

So… If you do see an offer for these people – make sure you find out the facts before giving them your hard earned cash!
