"Wow! A free sub-zero. I'd love one of those in my kitchen," I thought as I saw the red lettered words scrolling across the marquis at the bank inside my
Wal-mart. I glanced back up a few minutes later after laboring with my son on the
appropriate place to stash the Viva paper towels post check out. "Free sub-zero sleeping bag when you open an account," the rest of the message scrolled on. I chuckled to myself. So ironic for our economic times. I guess they are trying to snag the foreclosure niche market. Someone should really talk to their marketing people...I don't think the "soon to be homeless, need a sleeping bag" crowd will be making big deposits.
funny! although, I'm the type they target...I'd be thinking. "sweet a free sleeping bag!"
ReplyDeletei need help!
*giggle* better than the free toaster a lot places used to give away a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteTalk about bait and switch! It is funny how our minds see only part of the writing due to chaotic shopping with kiddos. Then the whole picture or words appear and it isn't as impressive as first thought!
ReplyDeleteSub-zeros are nice bags, I'd have signed up ;)
