in Praise, vent & warnings
Pretty Peed off about this one , I Joined the face book fan page advertised on a freebie website saying that if you join Greggs fan page you will receive a voucher for "FREE VOUCHER FOR A SANDWICH".

Anyway , Liked , submitted details On there application page. Today on logging in received a update from them saying basicley the voucher is B.O.G.O.F.

False advertising?

reek 80k fans and then want to reach 1000 for the same promtion.

    BOGOF - Buy one get one free.

    Presumably that free one is the free sandwich you're talking about?

    Either way, not really the biggest issue facing humanity is it?

    I'm not sure I'd go that far but it's a little bit sneaky.

    No, it says click like to reeal how to get a free sandwich, but anyone can guess that it will involve purchases, it doesn't state it is free of cost.

    Still, i like their mince pies :)
    Owed out = lots. :cool:

    Generally if its a BOGOF, there should be small print stating it, either "when you buy a sandwich" or "with your next purchase". Not sure if it applies to facebook links, but it does with advertising promotions.
