All you have to do is claim you have bought Startkist tuna in th elast 5 years, and you get $25 in cash or $50 in tuna. Even if nobody cheats, $25 for every person who has bought their tuna in the last five years?

We have no choice.  If they go then we all go.

Well, this made me go check to see what the wife buys.  Never really paid attention or requested she buy something specific.  In our pantry we have two cans of Chicken of the Sea.  Reminds me of their old jingle:

Ask any mermaid you happen to see: what's the best tuna?  Chicken of the Sea!

Aaaaaaaaaaand that song is stuck in my head Sad
