well, that is a novel marketing idea…a little like the old “protection” racket!

Try 100% off, Ray…….

You should “reply” to their message by tossing it through their window. I’ll bet they have a big one.

Subliminal marketing.

Free inspection at our friendly dealers.

I’ll bet their competition will match it.

If three guys show up wanting to fix holes in your lunchbox, lock the door.

I hope that the fine print says:

“If Found, Please Return To Ray’s Glass Repair – The Store With The Giant Glass Window”…

What a pane.

A not so subtle way to generate business.

Business must be slow at Ray’s glass repair.

Taking a page out of Charlie Chaplin and Jackie Coogan in “The Kid.”

Reminds me of those idiots who toss a baggie filled with pebbles, and a business card in it, onto your driveway or lawn. It’s often for a lawn maintenance service. If you don’t see it, and mow over it, you’ve ruined your mower blade, and then you need them!

I’d say that window is way past repairing. Look for someone who does window replacement!

A little too obvious Ray.

the cruel irony… how tragic. :{

Rays business was a smashing success but a pane to break in new customers!

The old broken window theory of economics.

They shard have a lot of nerve!

They know all sides of the business: They (can) break it, they can fix it.

Bleeb had nothing to do with it!!!!!! Nice curtains. Time to close them. :)

Same ol tricks

“How’s business, Ray?” “Smashing.”

He’ll be getting more than 10% off once he files charges. Plus you can add legal fees.

Ray can be such a pane in the glass.

Broke me up!

That glass is so thick, I can’t imagine anything busting through…

Pretty sure that’s actually evidence in the lawsuit against Ray’s Glass Repair…

Well that’s one smashing ad campaign. I’m sure it will be a shattering success.

That’s going to be a real pane to repair.

Yeah, and youse betta take advantage of dis great deal, capiche?

“Return brick for full discount.”

Hmm, wonder where that came from!
