How to Turn a Profit with No Money Down

September 14th, 2004 | jchaager | General

Two enterprising teenagers in Oslo, Norway found a way to make over $1000 with no money down. It seems that a grocery store in Norway promotes the freshness of its beer by offering to pay customers the full price of the beer if they find any that is out of date.

While visiting the store, the two boys, 14 and 15, found 280 cans of beer that were out of date. They loaded up a shopping cart with all 280 cans of the beer and headed for the checkout line to claim their reward. After much head scratching and phone calling, it was determined that since the kids didn’t try to buy the beer, they hadn’t done anything wrong, and were entitled to the advertised reward. The two kids walked out of the store with 7000 kroner in their pockets.

Not bad for a couple hours work.

Wish I could make money like that. We need to get Budwiser to do that here, then i’ll cruise around the grocery stores. ^.^
