Have I been brainwashed? (John Lewis-centric)

Robeson [Edit] [Delete] 16 replies 10:59, 19 December '13

So last night I had a dream (no, wait! keeping reading). I was attending the wedding of a ex-girlfriend of mine but I didn't have a suit to wear and I had to be there in 30 minutes. I got into a cab and then suddenly it took me to John Lewis.

I was overjoyed. I so happy there was a John Lewis nearby. Then I was telling my friends, who all suddenly appeared, how great John Lewis was. I was telling them how the prices were reasonable and the quality was really good and they just made Christmas present shopping a breeze. This went on for ages and never really moved on from me shopping at John Lewis.

Now let this thread sink away to the bottom UNLESS anyone here has had a weird John Lewis dream. Anyone else?

  • No, this is a new thing

    promoted Dreams. It was announced by the reality and fabric of life only last week. If you pay for Sleep Premium you can avoid them and go back to having non-branded dreams about eating boiled eggs in your no name underwear.

    I had one about Wickes last night, so I bought some gravel today. Makes sense when you see my dream.

  • I think that it just shows that you have jolly good sense

    John Lewis - they may be consumer goods retailers, but somehow they seem not as bad as most of the others.

  • I like John Lewis

    I also like the advert and if makes me well up a bit. (ok so it makes me sob happy tears).
    I'm a powderkeg of hormones though.

  • My girlfriend works for John Lewis.

    They treat their staff really well. I'm awaiting a free stay in one of their guest homes. http://www.theguardian.com/business/gallery/2010/mar/16/john-lewis-retail

  • Sean, is this how you're funding the new site

    forward-slash paying off your crippling horse-fight debts?

    THOUGH THAT SAID IF I HAD TO SELL-OUT TO ANY CORPORATION IT WOULD BE JOHN LEWIS, SO GOOD ON YOU SEAN IF THAT IS THE CASE BECAUSE I LOVE THE THINGS THEY SELL AND PIANO-BASED COVER VERSIONS
