Bank Holiday Holiday
Posted: Sun 23 August, 2009 Filed under: Advertising, Cynicism 1 Comment »In the run-up to next Monday’s Bank Holiday, I’ve now had four emails from companies, all along the lines of “There’s still time to book a Bank Holiday weekend break“.
While I understand that they’d rather be fully booked than (to pick a number out of the air) 75% full, promotional emails like these still make me think the companies are desperate for business.
Would you book a last-minute break on the basis of an email like this?
Anything with the word ‘child/ren’ or ‘school holidays’ in it sends me screaming for cover.
