792.0. "Perplexing free offer" by QUARK::LIONEL (We all live in a yellow subroutine) Wed Jun 17 1987 12:17

    A vote for "Most Perplexing 'Free Offer'":
    
    According to ad in Stereo Review, if you buy a Shure CD player from
    J&R Music World, they'll give you a free Shure phono cartridge!

    	After you bought the CD player what would you use the cartridge
    for?  Shure may not be able to sell their cartridge stock!  ;^)

    Well, the cartridge they're offering is an older model that they
    sell for about $60.  It did seem a very odd product tie-in, but
    I don't think it was being proposed by Shure.
