We frequently receive invitations in the mail to attend "seminars" that include free meals. The seminars are sales pitches, of course, for various products or services that we're not interested in...we're just interested in the free meals, particularly on days when we don't want to cook. Today was just such a day. The seminar was held at a local restaurant only minutes from our home, so it was convenient.
The speaker was entertaining, even though we were not convinced of the validity of his claims for the product he was marketing. Anyway, at this time of year, we're not willing to plunk down $1,500 or so, even if we think a product is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Two or three people were willing to buy, though, and were filling out paperwork as we got up to leave, appetite satisfied and purse strings tightly knotted.
