I think gauge.CircularGauges.Add(circleGauge); should have been one of the last instructions. The code you used... gauge.CircularGauges[0].Pointers[0].Value = 10; can only be used when you already have a pointer created, if you have no pointers the index will be out of bounds.

gauge.CircularGauges[0].Pointers[0].Value = 10;

can only be used when you already have a pointer created, if you have no pointers the index will be out of bounds.

However, for bigger purchases or with companies that pride themselves on customer service. I can see myself using this technique for service based businesses, such as car insurance.

It's not like the cashier at my local Wal-Mart is going to say, "Oh sure, I'll take $20 off!" That’s a good idea but I can’t imagine asking that for 99% of my purchases.

When we stop learning/playing, we become complacent and forgetful. We'll also lose interest in life and quickly give up on it. I intend to keep playing video games until my hands won't move anymore. ;-) This is so true. When we stop learning/playing, we become complacent and forgetful.
