36ers Ad in Messenger incorrect
Messenger Newspaper readers might notice an ad for 36ers 2006/07 memberships in this week's edition. Unfortunately there's an error in one of the prices courtesy of the newspaper.
You have to wonder if they didn't see the $25 Junior Jammers price and wonder if it really was possible? After seeing the misprint, I did a quick add of the retail prices of everything that's included and it could be around five times what it's being sold for.
Here's the response from the club:
Messenger advertising errorGood to see the club getting the announcements out into the press.
13/JUL/2006 On Wednesday 12th July, a Pura Milk 36ers advertisement appeared in all eleven publications of the Messenger Newspapers.
It was distributed throughout the metropolitan area of Adelaide to more than 500,000 readers. In this advertisement, it was stated that the Junior Jammers package was available for $255 - this is clearly a misprint as the package actually sells for $25.
Messenger Newspapers have taken responsibility for this mistake and are in the process of placing correct adverts in the next publications due for circulation on Wednesday 19th July.
This is an easy mistake to make. On first looking at the Junior Jammers package, it might be fair to value the package at a bit closer to $255 than $25!
Four (4) free games, 36ers cap, drink bottle, shoe bag, Dribbler magazine, bumper sticker, Members Day invite and a training session with the Pura Milk 36ers players, all for only $25.
We apologise for any confusion this error may have caused.
