"$100 reward will be paid by Neti-pot Co. to any person who suffers from hayfever after having used the Neti-pot three times daily for 4 weeks, according to the printed instructions supplied with the pot. We have deposited $1000 with First National Union Bank to show how much we believe in the healing powers of the Neti-pot."

Sheldon used the Neti-pot every day for 4 weeks, but still suffered from seasonal hayfever allergies. Will he be able to collect $100 from the Neti-Pot Company?

a. No, because advertisement are not generally offers.
b. No, because the advertisements are an invitation to bid.
c. No, because no reasonable person would have believed Neti-pot's ad to be an offer.
d. Yes, because Sheldon accepted the offer contained in the Neti-pot ad by performance.

B. No, because the advertisements are an invitation to bid.

Explanation:

An advert is not legally binding as it is just a means to capture consumer attention and convince them to buy a product or service.

Advertisements are merely considered as invitations to bid so the one made by Neti-pot Co is misleading because anybody reading it will immediately assume if a consumer takes the product the way it is advertised and begin to get side effects, the company will really give out the $100 promised.

Therefore, Sheldon wont get any compensation even if she decides to sue.

She will have to bear the consequences alone.
