    Can I really get two free arms? Even if they're skinny, I could use a couple extras sometimes.

    Copy is an advertising industry term for the written words in the ad. The way the ad is written, the call to action is to get two amazing arms for free. It's unclear wording.

    I wasn't being critical of your photo quality.

    By "terrible copy" I believe he meant that the copy writing in the ad was terrible. Not that it was A terrible copy. Ease up folks.

    The first ad I saw about that product was a banner ad that read "Amazing Arms, buy one, get 2 free!". My first thought was Whut??

    I certainly COULD use a couple of extra arms some days. My dog would appreciate it as well, because I could type on my laptop, skip thru commercials on the TV and wouldn't have to stop petting her. She hates that and gives me the pouty face when I take my hand off of her back.

    I finally saw a TV ad about Amazing Arms and realized it was basically a Spanx sleeve for your arms. No more Bingo wings!
    I could actually use that as well, since I can't get extra actual arms. :sad:

    Gotcha - obviously I have zero knowledge of the advertising industry.
    Thanks for the explanation!

    LOL now, if you hadn't explained, I would have thought they were still giving away arms.. haha I haven't heard of these things, but they'd be hella-uncomfortable!
