Burger King Will Sell You a Dollar for a Dollar

In another in a series of extremely clever and attention-grabbing marketing moves from the fine folks at Burger King (remember the Whopper-scented perfume?) you may now purchase any one of several different greeting cards from the fast food giant for just one dollar. They’ll address it and mail it for you, but before they do, they’ll tuck a real, live dollar bill inside so that the recipient (should they so choose) may go and buy themselves a nice hamburger to celebrate the birth of Christ (or the miracle of Hanukkah or Winter Solstice or Kwanzaa or the culturally-appropriate holiday of their choice) . So, for just a buck, you can send your friends and loved ones a holiday-themed advertisement and an apology for doing so, provided that you consider money to be an appropriate way to apologize for transgressions. We sure do.
Is that transgressions joke aimed at Tiger Woods?! If so, please proceed.
I believe that particular transgression will cost a great deal more than one dollar.
