undoubtedly somebody just won a bet on how long it would take b4 the first thread was started. you just endorsed the email fyi.

Well, here's how I look at it.

I certainly get my fair share of junk mail and newspaper inserts for "Memorial Day Sales" at various department stores.

Bluelight specials at Kmart to honor fallen US Soldiers is perfectly acceptable in American Society, so why not $50 9/11 payouts?

Nothing I'd get my panties in a ruffle over.

you of all people i thought would have a knot in your cock over this..

its poor taste, but seeing where it comes from its not unusual... or unexpected really

anyone to run a special for this, walmart or not, is only trying to gain from the tragedy... how is offering cheaper goods memorializing anything? its an excuse to use a billboard... a tasteless excuse

working like a charm i see...

kudos to the sales/marketing team over at epic

mad views.

Uhm, of course it's not memorializing anything, that wasn't the point I was trying to make.

My point is that such things as "Memorial Day Sales" have been ingrained into American Culture.

As for Epic Cash and this promo. It's typical p1mpdogg style, and will be amazingly successful I'm sure. People will "outrage" this e-mail into a great marketing campaign, and Epic Cash doesn't have to do a thing but sit back and bank off of it. :2 cents:

It is controversial, that's why Trey did it I suspect. My two cents is that is inappropriate. Therefore I will not participate. I never could convert Epic anyways.

Let's hope that we do NOT have a repeat 9/11 this year.

It's not something I'd do, but I've seen far worse. Selling those commemorative coins or whatever it is with "A genuine piece of the fallen WTC" seems in REALLY bad taste to me.

Don't think so? Trust fund kid. Do some research on alexa and the Epic sites.

That doesn't mean we don't luv Trey. He is fucking hilarious!

I don't know Trey's history nor do I really care. I don't think anyone can deny he's made bank off of Epic Cash, and I think we're all very aware of the types of marketing stunts that he and his staff have done to achieve whatever success he's enjoyed. That's all I'm trying to say. :2 cents:

I could understand it more if they were going to donate a portion of the sales during that period rather than just raising payouts.
