Get your drinking Boots on

This is a funny article about new diet Coke cans. But a strange thing: the author’s description of where this new product will be sold, which is presumably intended to be over–the–top, sounds almost exactly like the Boots down the road from my office (except the nail polish is unlikely to be especially cheap):

“Tragically, the new lady Coke will be exclusive to Boots. That’s where this mythical thirsty shopping trip has taken the modern working woman of the Coke men’s imagining. She is a nervous wreck who spends her nine–minute lunch–break in the chemist’s, rushing round purchasing fat–free cottage cheese portions, cheap nail polish, headache pills and scented insoles”.

Man, it’s terrible in that Boots. I once spent a little too long in there at lunchtime and ended up getting PMT in sympathy.
