Free Flower

I was browsing around in the Watsons shop located at the Toa Payoh HDB Hub and a tall young man dressed in a white suit just gave me a single pink flower on a long stalk. I stared suspiciously at him, and he understood my signal.

“It’s free. You don’t have to pay anything, and I’m also giving you this voucher for you to get a free pink pouch when you buy 2 packets of our product.”

Guess what’s the product he’s selling? It’s the Carefree pantiliners – new packaging, new look, new selling approach.

Then I was remarking to the cashier that it’s so funny that you’d get sweet young girls to sell stuff to men, and now a male to sell women’s stuff. She couldn’t restrain a giggle. What’s next? Intriguing.
