Litres of Savings

[DaveX86]

This is kinda funny, buy our electronics and get 'Litres of Savings'[^] ...what does electronics have to do with saving gas? :~

[Michael Schubert]

At least they display the savings also in $$$. Anyway, this is quite bizarre advertising.

(MSRP - Sale Price) */ price per liter = Liters of Savings

Yeah, I know...it just struck me as a weird marketing approach for a computer place.

[Steve Mayfield]

by purchasing over the net (or mail order), you save gas not driving to the local electronics / computer shop :-O

Yeah, but they spend gas shipping it, so it's a wash :)

[Dalek Dave]

Not if they send a boy on a bike! And anyway, given the cost of fuel, you would be saving enough to by a new house!

Yeah, they should measure it in litres of beer as in, 'you can buy 120 litres of beer with the savings'...pretty soon gas is going to be more expensive than beer.
