A few weeks ago, I submitted an article about the offer by Polaroid that if you buy a plane ticket on Delta they will pay for the second ticket, when you buy the Polaroid Sun Camera. I was wondering if anybody knows anything about the details of this offer since I plan on taking at least 2 trips by myself and wondered if the offer was for only 2 people at the same time. I haven't received any responses and thought maybe it didn't get out to net-land. I would appreciate any information anybody has. I've also now heard that Kodak has some kind of offer also, and I know nothing of the details to that. Thanks in advance, decvax!genradbolton!grkermit!carol

I have heard the advertisements on these things, and am concerned of only one thing; they sound good up front, but make sure ( i believe this to be the case, correct me if I am wrong) that the offer does not hinge on the requirement that the ticket you buy must be a full price fare. If this is so, and i believe that it is the case, I would suggest calling the appropriate airline and see what the "Supersaver" fare is for the same flight. Some fares are 50% of cost when the supersaver option is used, there are some restrictions, however. Therefore, if you can live with the supersaver restrictions, you can get two tickets for the price of one regular fare, and save buying a camera or whatever. However, if you cannot live with the restrictions, better buy some film for that new camera. TANSTAAFL: There ain't no such thing as a free lunch!!! Steve wheatley, inuxc!wheatley
