Best of Greenville?

A lot of spam email flows through my inbox. Generally I don't give the title more than a passing glance before hitting the big, black X in my Outlook toolbar.

Today, one came through informing me that F.C. Dadson was the winner of the "Best of Greenville" award. Wow! Finally being recognized as the best of our modest town in northeastern Wisconsin by some sort-of official-looking association? It must be our lucky day.

Upon opening, here's what I found:

"I am pleased to announce that F.C. Dadson, Inc has been selected for the 2009 Best of Greenville Award in the Cabinets category by the US Commerce Association. In recognition of your achievement, a 2009 Best of Greenville Award has been designed for display at your place of business. You may arrange to have your award sent directly to F.C. Dadson, Inc by following the simple steps on the 2009 Best of Greenville Award order form."

So the US Commerce Association picked us as a Best of Greenville Award recipient in the "Cabinets" category? I'd have to agree with them. We do have some really nice cabinets around the office and we made them all ourselves. Double score!

But what's this about us having to ORDER our award? I thought we'd already won it. Now we have to purchase it too? Really?

While we think F.C. Dadson is the "Best of Greenville" in the Cabinets category, we'd prefer our satisfied customers spread the word:

"Great designs. Great customer service." -Samantha Lawhon, Messermeister

Ah, priceless.
