my 5 cents worth: I always knew I would not feel comfortable holding Z, but the yield was just too tempting. I bought a small number a shares (1253) at 6.54 - yield 6.5% fully imputed. Now I am a long term holder, most likely 5 years.
I always fill up at various Gull stations, because with Gull, you know what you get - no mucking about with bonus schemes and the likes, and I never stopped at Z...just the most expensive lot and for what reason?
I sometimes stopped at BP to use the bonus on the AA card, but it turned out, even with the bonus, they are more expensive then Gull.
Gull seems to be the most up-to-date retailer with their no gimmicks approach and with their speed lanes, to me its no wonder that other retailers are going to eat dirt.
Z IS my biggest mistake I have done in the market for the last 20 years+. Bugger...60m profit downgrade based on bonus schemes? You got to be kidding...This is stupid and I am stupid...
