At first this looked tempting, until further reading.
Not trying to pick on anyone, just stating fakes when marketing, even online eCommece, you don’t falsely advertise.
The website Home page ad says;
$5 P&C Cash With
Every Tin Purchase.
And it’s not every tin, this is misleading advertisement.
It should of said;
$5 P&C Cash With
Only Select Tin Purchases.
And of course reading this I assumed all their tins, had this $5 deal, they don’t, it’s barely 2 pages on the site, of a few blends.
And, it also falsely advertises saying;
Over
50 Tins To Choose From.
I just counted, there were only
48.
I will not buy from a business that falsely advertises products to consumers, it’s actually illegal.
Thumbs down to P&C!

I guess they don’t seem to realize in eCommerce this ad is illegal.
The Internet is connecting advertisers and marketers to customers from Boston to Bali with text, interactive graphics, video and audio. If you're thinking about advertising on the Internet, remember that many of the same rules that apply to other forms of advertising apply to electronic...

P&C might state somewhere else later on the website, like this ad, that now says on ‘Qualifying Purchases’, but you still can’t legally/partially deceive either. That could also be considered ‘Switch & Bait’, which is illegal.

Bottom line, it’s not complicated, to have switched the wording in the Home Page ad, and be honest about it.
