The lobster market's down. Hey, a marketing opportunity! Take it from Lobster Gram:
Due to the sluggish economy, the lobster market is suffering, and the lobstermen need our help! Lobster Gram is pleased to present this BAILOUT BLOWOUT to help get the lobster economy back on its feet! FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY -- SAVE UP TO 50% when you purchase our namesake package, the original Lobster Gram!
I don't blame Lobster Gram for trying. But somehow, I don't think the half million people who made their first unemployment claims last week are going to be lining up for crustaceans at any price -- to say nothing of the millions more who are worried they'll get the ax next.
