Just A 20% Discount?


Apparel manufacturer, Ecko has decided that if you get the logo of their company tattooed on your body they will give you a lifetime 20% discount when you buy their products. Huh? This is the worst idea ever. Not a bad idea for free publicity, but if you get one of these tattoos you are an idiot. Most of their stuff costs like $20, so you are going to save, what $4 an item and that is if they stay in business. Yeah, that Enron tattoo sounded like a good idea at the time huh? How is that Friendster leg tattoo working out for you? Thought so.

I think my going rate to be a human billboard would be $100K for a 2X2 tattoo on my body. I would do that. If Kat von D had done that she would be a billionaire and could stop pretending to like Jesse James. Yeah, Kat, we all know about the other guy. Wait, did I say that? Here I was talking about the worst things you can do to yourself and that comes up. Well, dating Jesse James or Kat von D is on that list so I guess it fits.

  4. Well well! I guess we all *do* know about the other guy now ;)
    And I agree, I might get a tattoo for $100K. Maybe even $50K, but not for 20% off apparel. That's just ridiculous.

  5. A few days ago I saw a woman who tattooed the frickin' Farmville logo on her hand. Way to ruin all your future job prospects, idiot.

  8. There's a restaurant that does the same thing, lifetime 25% off if you tat yourself. And there are plenty doing it too!

  11. Get a stack of temporary tattoos made for $40, and reap the rewards without the commitment. Works for me.
