   Mc Donalds has this so-called value pack offer now. You
get a soda, fries and chicken nuggets. The voice on the commercial
says distinctly 11 nuggets. But if you look closely you can tell
that the box being used for the nuggets has a 9 printed on it.

   When I bought one of these a week ago [for someone else - don't
tell me they're lousy :-)] I got a box of nine nuggets. At the
time I figured the commercial meant eleven things were one soda
plus one fries plus 9 nuggets. That is, the special was for a 
total of eleven items of whatever. 

   So what you see is what you get; but what you hear is NOT
what you get.

   I think it's a rip off. Anyone care to comment?
