i'm sure tesco deliberately look at what i buy via my club card stats and then remove the products i like
its happened too many times to be a coincidence
wonderlust
26-07-10, 17:37
That, sir, is one long debated question :D
seriously when does Aria close!?
I might be here all night!
it's closed now or half past

26-07-10, 18:08
bit of a fail competition...
Agreed
wonderlust
26-07-10, 18:10
But Aria could come on anytime ;)
Yeah but he did say "before closing time" ...
Unless this is a PLOY...!!?
Also, maybe it will be hidden in another part of the forum, so even if we spam refresh this section we will not see it!
wonderlust
26-07-10, 18:13
I think that was for the cooler?
bit of a fail competition... really could have been a better task.
Lol, gg.
Just a way to get people active on the forum mate. More luck than a competition though.

26-07-10, 18:32

the day ends at midnight surely?
Aria is also a person no? asking what time does Aria close, is like asking what time Aria will open up..
and that can get you into all sorts of trouble..
Well there's Aria the person, and Aria the company.
even though this has been responded to, to death it stil ldoesnt change the fact that Aria ACTUALLY IS a fantastic company!
im not saying that to try and win anything or brown nose anyone, it genuinly is and ive been buying off them for around 4-5 years :)
Well there's Aria the person, and Aria the company.
ah, but which came first?
the person he started by buying a selling out of newspaper and now look at him bloody good that
Aria the person I'm guessing... :rolleyes:

Yeah, like on a competitor's forum or something! :cop:
Good morning everyone,
I am scheming some new competions for you today. Given the success of yesterday's, I have a feeling you are going to like today's!
Enjoy your day and watch out as me and the team "unearth" the prizes :)
Damn it, i'm at work today!! :(
I see far more of the web when in work, have far too much on at home.
I'm a painter & decorator, so don't have the use of a computer when i'm working :)
Will be keeping my eyes peeled :ninja:
Good morning again everyone,
To get to a warm start I am going to ask you to guess the size of our warehouse here at Aria House.
Answers will be accepted until 10:30 am this morning and the first two correct ones will recieve 2500 Aria loyalty points each equivalent to £25 (1p per point).
Andrew in Customer Service will then contact you to top up your points or take your order :)
Good luck and enjoy your morning.
Aria
:lol: I wonder how many others will find the article online that lists the sq foot from three years ago :)
You just have to ask the question, how much has the premises been expanded since Aria moved there in 2007? :)
DT.
37000 sq ft...
I found the article, after many minutes searching. Do you have any other off site facilities that are included or is it simple ARIA HOUSE?
37,500 sq feet
I see what you did there :P
Well, iirc the rival company containing "clock" in their name has an HQ of about 20k sq ft, whereas ebu... has 280k sq ft. I reckon Aria is more at the clock end, I'm gonna guess 45,000 sq ft.
what happens if there are 2 the same? first one wins?
first 2 win I got it ;)
Toonshorty
27-07-10, 09:36
35,000 sq ft.
First two win. Im sticking with my original answer as it asks warehouse size, not building size.
wonderlust
27-07-10, 10:05
27250 sq ft
Not 52? :P
I think he did exactly what I did to get my answer by the looks of it., I just rounded up.

sorry to dissapoint you but I didn't look anyway, just picked a random number
Is it only one guess? If not 33,333 sq feet. If it is only 1 guess ignore this.
Important question, what if no one gets it right? Do I win for pointing this out? :P
30,000 sq feet, no-one going to answer in metres? :P

27-07-10, 10:56
Hi guys, the Chief has left it to me to break the news as he is in a meeting, and i can reveal that the answer we were looking for is....*DRUM ROLL*.....................
22,000 Sq Feet.
So by my reckoning i see Peter, and Wonderlust are our winners, well done guys.
Can you PM me your details so we can add points to your accounts, or alternatively provide me a number and we can place an order for you to the value of £25.
Hard luck everyone else....stay tuned for more deals...Aria has his thinking cap on ;)
Cheers
Andy
Good Game :( Congratulations!
I used Google Maps to calculate the size of the warehouse and got like 27,500 sq feet lol. Hence my low answer.

What is the sqft of office space and retail area (not the warehouse) at Aria House?
Toonshorty
27-07-10, 11:05
25 Sq Ft
So tense i broke my chair! :(

Over 9000! sq feet.
I have never seen inside aria, so my guess is probably way off =/
I have never seen inside aria, so my guess is probably way off =/
It's a hard one for someone who has been there too, I have never been in returns/tech support so I am unsure on that size and it is on 2 floors

Visibleguy
27-07-10, 12:05
43000 square feet.
You've got just over an hour to get 36 posts. :rolleyes:
30 posts left on the wall:)
Keep spamming mate you'll soon get there.
has this ended?
lemme try:
42
nope the comp ends at 1.30 dont think i'll get enough posts by then but i dont mind more comps will come
Just use it as incentive to get more active. Don't spam too much though ;)
since it hasn't ended, i'll give it my real attempt, instead of the answer to universe and everything.
34,348 sq feet?
I can't wait any longer! Hurry up :P
They will be down the pub having lunch :p
AndyCSM@Aria
