almost a diary

Personally, I hate the whole voucheritis that has infected Germany over the last couple of years. I get why marketing departments love them, and yes, if I worked in one of them, I’d probably be infected as well. But as a customer, I find them as annoying as it gets. Although, apparently, not all vouchers are equal, as today’s Reuter’s “oddly enough” reminds me -

NEW YORK Reuters – A Nevada brothel is trying to stimulate business by offering free gasoline.

Clients of the Shady Lady Ranch will get a $50 gas voucher if they fork out $300 — worth about one hour’s worth of services — at the brothel in Beatty, Nevada, 130 miles northwest of Las Vegas.

Owner James Davis said he already has had to order another $1,000 set of gas vouchers because the first $1,000 were spent in one week.
