So I watch the food network while I work and channel flip at night. The last week or two, the've been advertising this special 3 piece knife set similar to whats used by rachel ray. It's only $99.95 and some proceeds go to charity.
I could use a couple of new knives I think, so I go to foodnetwork.com. Is the knife set on the front page? No. Odd.. millions of viewers have been impressed by the ad so far, but it's not front and center. So I click the "Shop" link. Is the knife set there? No.. Another 2 piece set is there for $99.95 though. So I start clicking around and see several similar knives, but not until about the 4th page do I find the knife set. And I had to find it by reading the text description, because for that knife set, the image is broken!!
So, is this a horrible mistake? Or do you think they're selling more knife sets at a higher profit and leaving it buried and broken on purpose?
