The ad text tells the tale of how the office workers came up with the idea to make this extraordinary offer.

Tagline or sample ad copy: "It will take a little time, but as soon as people realize what we are doing, that the tableware we offer is as high quality as Quaker Oats and Pettijohn's, the plan will take like a whirlwind."
