Well I'm sure you all know that I was on vacation!!! Man did I need it. Took some files with because of course now that I go on vacation I get so busy. Anyways, one of the nights we were going to dinner on International Drive there was a VW Beetle that drove by us and my kids thought it was tooo funny! The restutrant was for Boston Seafood, an all you can eat seafood place! I thought what a way to advertise. I use to have magnets on my car, but when I changed offices I didn't replace them. 

Here are some shots of the car! It took me forever to get a shot, this little car was driving so fast. My husband had to catch up to it just so I could take the shot.Boston Seafood

Look how big this lobster is! Its HUGE.  I called to see how much it cost to eat there. Before 6 pm it was 34.95 and after 6 pm is 39.95.

Now with the three kids it was a little on the expensive side, if it was only my husband and myself I would have given it a try since I love seafood so much.

I thought the car looked funny myself. Not sure if I could drive this thing all day.

 

Just thought I would share this with you!

Is that Boston Lobster?  If so I have been there see the trick is to only eat lobster..I ate 6 of them..yes 6 lobster tails.  I had to get my money's worth and like you I love seafood!  Louie ate desert and steak and everything else but for me my intent was to eat lots of lobster oh and don't eat lunch.. and yes sometimes they check on you to make sure you don't share.  I don't share lobster with anyone!

that is marketing...... but also kinda scary don't ya think???     But it caught your attention which is what it was supposed to do so I guess it works.

I have a love for lobster that borders on the obsessive. I suspect it would take about 2 of that size to fill me up. . .LOL!

Jeannette, that is so funny. It is not much different than what some of our industry does... so here are the questions this got me thinking... Just how inspired were you? What are you going to be doing to your car? and Just how much lobster did you guys actually eat?
