If, because of the discount, they take the tile option for $1200, or stretch their garage two feet for the same price when they might not have before, what business is that of yours. I think TV is doing something good not bad.

That said, those that did not get the discount shouldn't begrudge those that will. Be happy for them instead.
I am not sure Pt's post was meant to be negative. It was more like a "heads up". It is easy to get carried away with some marketing ploys. There is a lot of money to be made in upgrades.

One of the purposes of this forum is to make suggestions and comments to help people. It is difficult to do that without "minding someones business".
