Thanks, but no thanks

We like to think we know a good deal when we see one, and so does Dell, it seems. Instead of offering customers a saving of £50 or £50 off their next order, as you can see from the recent mailing received at Catablogue e-business’s headquarters, Dell was fighting the crunch and beefing up the customer’s shopping basket by advertising “UP TO £50 ON YOUR FIRST PURCHASE”. —MT
