BOGO

Bogo is grocery store-speak for buy one, get one free. It is cool to get two packages of grilled albatross for the price of one. Just this week a car dealer here raised the bar. If you buy a 2008 Chevy Suburban (they can’t give them away now), you get a 2008 Chevy Aveo for free. Where else can this be used? If you buy a $20 meal, dessert could be free. If you buy a dog, you get a free kitten. McDonalds invented the combo meal many years back, when people quit eating their french fries. Buy a sandwich and drink, and the fries are free. Linus once told Charlie Brown that when a baby is born, he should be issued a banjo. Pay your taxes, and you get an extra vote in the local elections. What bogo bargains can you think of?
