Anyone who lives in the real world knows there is no such thing as a free lunch; if someone’s offering it, step back and look at the bigger picture. We’ve already seen the Chase Friendship Circle campaign, and the Kohl’s day school voting mania. Despite all the emails you recieved to come and vote “this one time” the phenonema is here to stay. Companies have found the backdoor to get their ads to their target audience, and the “charity” prize money being give away is still less than conventional advertising costs, and tax deductible to boot.

BS”D

If your computer doesn’t save your info in the boxes, go along the whole line and click “vote” then type your email address in the first one and copy and paste it into all of the emails boxes. then do the same with the zip codes and click submit. the whole thing shouldn’t take more than a minute

Great Idea!!
October 12, 2010 10:51 am

and SO easy tooo… GENIUS!!
I voted for all in under 15 seconds…

Americans?

what is with americans (most), who struggle to think beyond their country the USA, “your vote will make a major difference in how Chabad is viewed in their city and nationwide”.
If you would add the word internationally in may encourage people from overseas to vote. It’s amazing that even when it comes to your own benefit, you still seem to forget that theres a whole world outside “planet USA”.
