Read this and win a free Reebok wrist watch!

Free Reebok Watch
The Free Reebok Watch!

Yes you read it right! Read this post all along and I will give you a free Reebok watch worth Rs. 2499/ 2599/ 2999.

Almost every other company is offering a free Reebok watch with their products/ services. It has been over a year now, and this has shown no signs of abatement. Interestingly you can get this for free even if you are buying products/ services for as low as Rs. 500 or so.

What’s wrong? What are the companies trying to sell? Their products or are they using Reebok’s brand to push their products? And what’s wrong with Reebok? I would never walk into a Reebok showroom to buy a watch anymore for the simple fact that all of them would  be ‘marked up’ at least 10 times their original worth! Is Reebok sick of selling shoes that it is willing to lend its brand to every damn company which comes to it?

Whatever, it is quite irritating. My cellphone is flooded with such offers.

Not to forget, another one is the ‘United Colors of Benetton’ watch.

I think if I buy stuff carefully, I would easily be collecting a few of those watches every month.

If you’ve read it up to this here, let me know. I wouldn’t mind extending the offer to the readers of my (now sick) blog ;-)
