Options Trades - MO & VOD

I have two options trades to report.  

Yesterday, I had a limit order get executed on a MO put.  I sold a Jun 22 '12 $30 MO Put @ 1.41. 

If I wait until June 22nd I will either get assigned 100 shares of MO at a cost of $28.59 or I will collect $141 to wait.  At $28.59/share that would be a yield of 6.15%!

Today I closed out a VOD put for a small profit that I had sold back on 11/15.  I bought-to-close 1 VOD Apr 20 '13 $26 Put @ 1.41.  I already own 200 shares of VOD between two accounts and I think their could be further weakness from Europe allowing me a more attractive price to lower my cost basis.

Both of these trades are updated on my options tab.
