The listing, $50 Target Gift Cart has ended.
"$50.00 at Target?" you say.
"Yes," I exclaim, "And not only that, there's free shipping of the card."
"Wow," you blurt out, as your chin drops to the floor."Where can I get this?"
"On Listia...for FREE," I say, holding up my hand, "but wait! Don't answer yet. There's still more."
You've picked up your chin and you shake your head, "There is more? Why, I can hardly believe it. What else could there possibly be?"
"Once the auction is over, the winner has a choice..."
Eagerly you interject, “I love choice!"
"Of course you do," agreeing, I nod and say (in my best Foghorn Leghorn), "I say, I say there now, Sonny, don't interrupt now. Ya bother me."
Contritely and meekly to whisper, “I’m sorry. You were saying something about 'choice.'"
"Oh, yes, 'choice!' Yes, the winner of the auction has the choice of having the card mail to him or her OR,-now get this-she or he can receive the code electronically to use at Target.com!"
"Fantastic! Where do I sign up?"\
"Well, Sonny, first you have to be a Listia member with some credits.....
then you bid.... yes, you bid long and hard....bid like there's no tomorrow.....bid until your fingers bleed, you elbows ache and your eyes grow dim.... bid high, higher, then highest....
Then win, win, win.... and 50 bucks in cold, hard Target cash will be in your pocket.
No time to waste there, Sonny. Get on with it!"
