I'm with skinny, anyone got this sms? It's from "800". Very weird.

Drinks sorted for Christmas? Hurry in to Countdown for our Wine, Beer & Cider Sale, on now all the way to Christmas. Reply QUIT to opt out.

Do you have a onecard with countdown (or have you given them your cell details in a competition or similar)? Looks like a bog standard marketing text message from them. I didn't get a text (and have a one card) but it gives you the option to Opt OUt of SMS by replying (thereby complying with the anti-spam act)

As above, it's tied in with your OneCard/Countdown account, where you'll have entered your mobile number. And yes, very easy to opt out.





People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Thanks for confirming it's not a scam. Or something along those.
