Have you ever "promoted" yourself when buying online?

When you make an online purchase of something that is to be delivered to your home you have to give your name and address details. It is also usual to find a drop-down menu that allows you to state whether you are a Mr, a Mrs, a Miss, a Ms, or whatever. Sometimes these options are quite extensive and allow you to be a bit naughty, should you so choose. How about having your parcel addressed to Field Marshall Jim Black, or the Rt Rev Daisy Shuttlewood? The choice is yours! However, I read recently about someone - let's call her Susan Brown - who chose not to make any such choice and just clicked on "Other" at the bottom of the list. When the item was delivered she saw that it was addressed to "The Other Susan Brown"!
