TRUTH IN ADVERTISING
So many products are sold via misleading or false advertising... so it was heart-warming to read about this Washington company that tells the truth in its labeling.
Labels on most of the backpacks, messenger and laptop bags made and sold by Tom Bihn have his company's contact information along with washing instructions in English and French along with a message reading: "Nous sommes desoles que notre president soit un idiot. Nous n'avons pas vote pour lui."
The translation reads: "We are sorry that our president is an idiot. We did not vote for him."
The best part? Since they started using these labels, bag sales have doubled. I guess truth in advertising really does work. To buy a bag, go here.
