The Magic Bullet is marketed that way. After psyching you up
to buy one, they try to push you over the edge by offering to
give you TWO for the price of one, a $XXX savings!

Such humanitarians should be administering the charitable
bequests of Bill Gates and Warren Buffet, not selling
Chinese crap appliances on UHF TV.

It seems like a form of multilevel marketing, by placing
a burden on the customer to find someone to whom to sell
the extra machine or to give it away.
