Gil Promos

November 27th

Yesterday we gave thanks for our many blessings. Today we give thanks for fantastic bargains! It's Black Friday! Get in the car, everyone. I don't want to miss a minute of fighting other women for the last discount purse. Oh, I hate that! Some lady always elbows me in the belly. I feel sorry for the lady who just got her elbow stuck in lard quicksand. Well, if you hate leaving the house on Black Friday, shop online at Ol' Gil's cyber store! I've spent all my pharmaceutical trial money collecting a Black Friday grab bag of goodies, and I'm ready to sell them to you. You shop, I ship. And the cherry on top? Ol' Gil will give you back donuts for every purchase you make!

November 28th

Gil's cyber store will never succeed. People love going to a real store with a friendly clerk. Hey old man, this is a store, not a retirement home. Buy something or get out! And come again.

November 29th

Mr. Gunderson, if you think your cyber store can outsell my Kwik-E-Mart, you are sadly mistaken. Well, I'm feeling pretty good. Care to bet some money on who sells more? I am not a gambling man. Actually, my chief source of income is selling lottery scratchers, so perhaps I am. You have a bet!

Item bought

After buying an item Enjoy your purchase, sir or madam... ...or child playing on their parent's phone.

Cyber Monday

After the user logs in on November 30: Boy, it's Cyber Monday, and I've got a whole heap of tech doodads for sale at my cyber store. Apu doesn't have a chance of winning our bet about who sells more. You are wrong! The Kwik-E-Mart Central Office is announcing unbeatable deals. Everything is on sale at our brick and mortar stores, including the bricks and mortar. In fact, even the Central Office is on sale. Lovely building, Himalayan location, sherpa parking. If Apu sells that Central Office I'll lose our bet for sure. And I already made a down payment on a cardboard box to sleep in. I've got to stop it. Luckily, no one is better at blowing a sale than Ol' Gil. If the offer is accepted Aw, you bought the Central Office. That means I lose my bet with Apu. So long, money. So much for me taking Cindy from Shipping out for cheeseburgers and malted milks. I wonder if that Central Office is hiring? if the offer is declined You didn't buy the mountain thing! I won my bet with Apu! I'm gonna buy some ten-dollar shoes and take Sally from Accounting out for a slice of banana cream pie! You got lucky this time, Gil. And as every good gambler knows, you've got to keep pushing your luck until it collapses in disaster!
