cell.textLabel setText with more than one item

I am using [cell.textLabel setText: title]; which is working great, but i would like to add a few more in the same cell.

For example: 

[cell.textLabel setText: title];
[cell.textLabel setText: venue];
[cell.textLabel setText: offer];

[cell.textLabel setText: title];
[cell.textLabel setText: venue];
[cell.textLabel setText: offer];

[cell.textLabel setText: title];
[cell.textLabel setText: venue];
[cell.textLabel setText: offer];

etc etc

But of course, this just overwrites the previous. So i just get the 'offer' in each cell.

How is something like this done? Please keep in mind, this is my very first app, one step up from 'hello world', so forgive me if this this seems a stupid question :)

thanks,

You can combine strings like this:

NSString *celltext;

celltext = title;

celltext = [celltext stringByAppendingString:@" "];
celltext = [celltext stringByAppendingString:venue];
celltext = [celltext stringByAppendingString:@" "];
celltext = [celltext stringByAppendingString:offer];
[cell.textLabel setText: celltext];

Alternative solution:

NSString *celltext;
celltext = [celltext stringByAppendingFormat:@"%@ %@ %@", title, venue, offer];
[cell.textLabel setText: celltext];
