Market Research = fail

Consider this.

I live in a flat. Granted it's first floor and not everyone would know that, but anyway. Even from outside, it is very obviously a flat, as there's nine doorbells and one door, so clearly it's not one giant humongous house. Okay? There's no garden either, a very very quick glance at it will reveal that there's no lawn or anything. Brains of Britain it does not require to work this out.

So with those facts in mind, now please consider this. This afternoon, I came home to work to find a free sample in my letterbox.

A free sample.

Of grass food.

Somebody, please explain to me where the f'ck my lawn has gone, because I'm seriously in the dark here.

lol Maybe they saw that you didn't have a lawn and wanted to help you start to grow one.

Mayybe... Although I'm not sure WHERE, unless they thought "well, she's got a postage-stamp-sized balcony, she can put grass there!" ;) It'd make a nice change to a carpet in the living room, at least.

Heh, maybe. Maybe they'd just been told "get as rid of as many of these as possible" and any letterbox was fair game. I'll give it to mes parents.

Maybe you've got it in a pot in the corner. :-)
