More strange and silly advertising claims from the land of Oz, for your general amusement ...
( taken from "Choice" consumer magazine ) -- Cotten Blanket -- Warm in summer, cool in winter Just what you need if you find summer is too cool and winter is too warm. -- Microwave Oven -- Comes with exterior cabinet and interior cavity Didn't know it was possible to build them any other way !! -- Lancer GLi Coupe 1.5 Litre Car-- Value!! includes CD player, immobiliser, engine, power steering, ... Don't know about you, but I would be pretty upset if the car I bought didn't have an engine .. -- "Bus Coaches for Hire" -- For conferences, sporting and social, tours and transfers, school executions I knew discipline was getting strict in schools, but this is a bit too much. -- Fitness Centre -- You will recieve: $59 per month, No joining fee ... At last, a gym that pays you to visit it !! And saving the best for last: -- printed on coffee jar label-- Best enjoyed 4-6 weeks after opening ... It seems as if you have to open the jar, then wait 4-6 weeks before you can make yourself a cup? No way !! Pang [img]graemlins/cat3.gif[/img] .

The funny thing is, I bet if you call up the companies and ask them, they'll back up their commercials 100%. *shakes head*
