Adventures in bad marketing
4 CommentsI was making an unplanned stop into the Costco near my work a couple of days ago and happened acroess a fairly good deal for USB memory. 3 4GB USB memory sticks with retractable connectors for $30!
12GB of gadgetry
So I picked them up and made it all the way back to my office before I noticed this little gem of a message on the packaging…
No, no, no, it really does say "Now packaged with less plastic":
Well, that’s noble. Let’s see that “less plastic” next to a fairly popular book:
Size: Freakin huge
Really? Less plastic? How much freakin plastic did it used to have?
