You know those offers for "free" tvs, playstations, computers, restaurant gift certificates, etc., where you have to complete various "offers" before they send out the free item? What are those offers? What are you obligating yourself to? How much do you end up spending in order to get the free thing? Thanks.

I am a sophomore in high school trying to raise money so I can travel abroad. I thought a raffle would be a good idea to raise money. I thought I could purchase an IPOD nano to raffle off, but I believe many people my age already own one. What other items would students my age buy raffle tickets for?

Wether its an offer for "Unlimited use" broadband by an ISP or an advert for "Unlimited free text messages" by a phone company, they always end the advert saying that a "Fair usage policy is applied".

I gather that means there is / will be a restriction of services for someone who uses up alot more than the average user, which means that its not actually "Unlimited".

So surely they are in breach of advertising rules?

Hey.
I'm a Realtor and I want to use the A-Team theme music in a Radio Ad.
Is this possible?
Do you know where to go to get this information?
How much would Royalties like this cost?
How close can you copy the music without infringing on any copyright / royalty laws?
Any help is welcomed. Thank you.

Can someone tell me more about internships? I have an interview for a graphic design internship coming up it is what I am in school for. I do not know what to expect at all so I am a little nervous.

But also I was wondering how often do companies KEEP their interns and hire them to work there? I just am not very familiar with internships so I would appreciate any information. Thanks!

I own a portfolio of real estate, and I specialize in bringing together roommates with similar interests and life styles together all under one lease. I'm up to quite a few homes these days that I need to fill, and Craigslist, Roommates.com and Easyroommates.com aren't really doing the trick. I'm also in the midst of getting a website developed where soon I will be advertising via Yahoo Overture and Google Adwords.

What else can I do, marketing campaigns can I compete in or what other websites are out there that could help my business?

Many a times have I seen Hanuka (sorry it is spelled wrong) dog toys or ribbons on chocolate boxes for Jewish-Americans, a minority. I have no problem with this...but I have read that there are just as many Islamic-Americans are there are Jews, and never a time can I recall seeing something (a gift card design, etc) catering to Muslims and/or Ramadan...and I also have not heard of any clear reasons to think that Muslim-Americans don't eat chocolate or have dogs or purchase gift cards, etc!

What say you?

When something is advertised as carrying a "Lifetime Warranty", does this mean that the item is warrantied for its lifetime? Does this mean that if it breaks down, it's considered that it's at the end of its life and therefore the warranty expires?

Isn't it the same as saying something is guaranteed to work till it breaks down?

I saw an advertisement here on yahoo for a company called Certified Career Institute (CCI). This company trains people to be a WPS (Web Promotion Specialist) and claims a 500 fortune company will hire you and you will make ALOT of money. It also claims to have a 100 % success rate, says it is NOT a scam and that you can do this course in a about 3 days or so.

Is this company legit? I searched around on the web and couldn't find anything bad.
