Free flight and champagne deal from Virgin

Virginwines.com based in London are reputedly one of the more successful online wine retailers so far. To prove they'll do almost anything for your custom and email address they're making the following offer: spend £70 by 15 March on wine and you can get two flights for the price of one to any Virgin Atlantic destination (New York, Washington DC, Miami, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Barbados, St Lucia, Antigua, Johannesburg, Delhi, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Tokyo etc – all presumably from London).

They're specifically offering a case of their best-selling wines, including a bottle of Gosset Grande Reserve Champagne supposedly free at www.virginwines.com which qualifies you for the flights offer. Needless to say there are all sorts of strings attached to the exact availablity of the flights but this looks worth checking out if you were planning to travel to any Virgin Atlantic destination (and I can thoroughly recommend an eye-opening trip to Shanghai, an architect's paradise – stay at the Peace Hotel, right in the centre and hardly changed, except for the upgraded bedrooms, since the 1930s).
