Marketing Campaigns That Suck

Living in the Seattle has been a real eye opening experience for me. It's the first city (and I've lived in a few) that really felt like home. It cozy and green and people are friendly. It has lots of cultural events like Bumbershoot and the Seattle Film Festival and Folklife and Opening Day but really none of those things compare to Free Beef Days at Les Schwab Tires.

Oh how I wish I was kidding you! Unfortunately, February is Free Beef Month at Les Schwab. It seems that with the purchase of a set of tires, this organization will give you a box of meat. Is it just me or is this just wrong? Is this a lousy, lousy marketing campaign or what? Who really wants to pick up butchered, animal products from their auto mechanic? Am I the only one who fears that this may in fact be road kill they pried out of some guys grill and stuck in a freezer? Yuck!
