Certified Legendary Thread Chrisco Hampers - who in their right mind buys them ?

[IKnowtheDog]

Sheena.

Has to be one of the great Chrisco fb visitor post names ever.

Classic 70s name, all but extinct nowadays sadly.

 

[Wojcinski]

Even worse is their 7 nights in Bali for $3500

Haha you'd think the Chrisco Bogan populace would be pretty up to date on the price of a trip to Bali

Personally I've done two weeks for $1000 including flights

 

[FoolCat]

Hang on, so WTF am I buying!?!

Just the cradle. That is absurd.

 

[kickazz]

I recon we could restore the budget to surplus by cutting weekly welfare payments to these peasants and replacing it with a Coles / Woolies voucher for Xmas.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Or a "Work for Chrisco" scheme.

 

[Smoooothy]

anyone wanna go halvies in a start up company. even if we go 5% lower than chrisco prices, we'll be rolling in it!

Articles like this show how much help people need with sorting out their finances.

Chrisco simply takes advantages of people that are too dumb to realise, "If I can't afford to buy something, save for it, or don't buy it."

The irony is that Chrisco is actually making some kids' Christmas enjoyable, imagine what sort of Christmas some kids would have if they didn't get Chrisco gifts / food.

There'd be no nuggets on the table that's for sure.

Jesus, the person controlling the Chrisco account must have loved that.

Printed, framed and straight to the Chrisco boardroom. It's everything they wish for in a loyal customer.

My Sheena is better than yours..

Yes, but is it really doing the right thing for the kid? Fast forward 25 years in that kid's life...

"The reason I save so earnestly is because when I was young I got very little for Christmas because my parents wasted all their money throughout the course of the year."

Or

"I don't know what I'd do at this time of year without Chrisco, they've been a part of my life since I was a kid."

Surely real life lessons trump empty feelgoodery, as much as it would suck at the time.

Shame they didn't buy a white goods hamper as well so they'd have a fridge to put it all in.

If one looks very closely at that photo, one can see the great delicate care the owner of that humongous pile of processed food has taken in placing everything nice ly and neatly like a real Chrisco ad.

And the little santa Pinocchio is a lovely touch too.

 

[radiojake]

those bread rolls won't be soft yet crusty by the time xmas rolls around

what's the bloody point?!

Nope. The company is for sale for 50 million. They're going ok.

I see about $120 in groceries

figured that's atleast $20 per week over 59 weeks?

Who knew chucking crap in a hamper would be so successful

 

[blackshadow]

These are a must for future Chrisco hampers!

Or a "handle for the bottom drawer" hamper.
