This is a question Expensive Mistakes

coopsweb asks "What's the most expensive mistake you've ever made? Should I mention a certain employee who caused 4 hours worth of delays in Central London and got his company fined £500k?"

No points for stories about the time you had a few and thought it'd be a good idea to wrap your car around a bollard. Or replies consisting of "my wife".

This is a QotW answer Diet coke
Coke were running a promotion a couple of years ago, where if the letters DVD appeared under your ring pull, you won a DVD player.

After about 500 cans I opened one and there were the letters! "Yes!" I thought, that doesn't happen every day.

As I was standing next to a bin at the time I chucked in the empty can, and set off happily down the road.
