Imagine
it.
You
get a free scratch card from your local garage, the top prize is $1000.
The
scratch card says you have a 50,000:1 chance of winning.
You
scratch.
You
win!
OK,
it's only $1000 but life has never been this good.
You
have never won anything like this before in your life.
You
go to collect your prize.
Sorry,
sir, ma'am, there was an error in the production of the cards...
It
turns out that every one of the 50,000 cards was a winner.
Expensive?
This
happened at a Roswell car dealership.
And
we assume there is some small print somewhere that says they don't have to pay
up, either...
The
manager of the car dealership was really sorry and has offered a $5 Walmart voucher
to all visitors with a card...
The
events promotions company was blamed for the foul up...
