Default A strange Black Friday sale

I got an email from the Nautilus Society today. The subject line read:

Black Friday/Cyber Monday 4 Day Sale! $200.00 off ANY Nautilus Cremation Plan!

That's right...the Nautilus Society, which offer low cost cremations, is having a "Black Friday" sale.

I can't decide whether someone in their advertising department has a wicked sense of humor, or whether they have someone who is emotionally tone deaf in their advertising department.

But, I am a sensitive type....maybe it's just me.

I guess it's all in the timing.

Or for a prepaid plan perhaps?

Thanks for the heads-up - I'll pass the info along to a few folks I'd like to see take advantage of this rare opportunity...

Some folks say that "where there is a will, there is a way". Instead, I believe "where there is a will, there is an awfully impatient relative". Maybe that sale is geared toward those impatient relatives, who need the money NOW!

Where can I find that add? Never mind, I looked it up and it's to far away.
