Jackie: Now your very own ad, which is a binding contract with the American public, stated specifically that if your customers were not greeted with a “hello” that said customer would be entitled to a compensation totaling $100. Not “hey”, not “howdy”, not “how’s it going”. “HELLO”. By your own admission, my client was not greeted with a “hello”, and now you want to try to use a loophole to back out of said contact? It’s deceitful, detestable, deplorable! Bank Manager: Ok he was given a greeting that started with an H, how about we settle at $20? Kramer: DEAL!!! Jackie: Another public humiliation at the hands of this man.

Reminds me of a business that advertised a sale of a car for “1030 bananas”. A customer came in with such quantity of bananas to pay for it, but was told it was a figure of speech where the cost is dollars. Customer sued the business for false advertising. This was 1965 when you could buy 3 bananas for a dollar. The incident got on the news, so in retrospect, it might have been a viral publicity stunt by the car dealership to get free press coverage. If it was, it’s brilliant because the traditional commercials would have cost more than a car.
