Take a close look at the fine print in the add.  Here in California
the law *requires* rain-checks *unless* the add specifies limited
quantities, stock-on-hand, or some similar type of disclaimer.

Note:  The disclaimer can be on individual items or for the entire
sale document (page, book, catalog, etc.)
