On a slightly similar note, whilst I served in Germany, the British Forces there used to be given cheap petrol coupons that could only be redeemed at BP garages. To that end everyone was given a map detailing the locations of all the BP garages in the country.
Obviously, when people were returning home to Blighty on leave, they would make a point of filling up at the last BP garage before they crossed the border into Holland en route to the ferry terminals, in order to save a fair few bob.

Most websites you see that have photos of the sign have just taken copies from my site.
You really are a complete cretin with self-esteem issues, aren't you?
