7429: Beware Of Hot Dog.


There’s something about this actual craigslist ad that isn’t Hebrew National—that is, it isn’t kosher. For starters, it’s written too well for someone allegedly seeking PR help. Plus, the claim of being “ready for anything including non traditional guerilla marketing” sounds way too sophisticated for a hot dog vendor. Finally, the offer of $500 and free food for a year is totally unbelievable, given that most local restaurants would barely cough up $50 for a press release.
