It all started with a loaf of bread

There’s a bakery down the road that makes the best-est bread you’ll ever taste.

My wife and I go nuts over it, and it’s a weekly trip for me.

I walked in on my typical day and asked for a loaf of white, sliced, please.

The lady gives me a cross-eyed look and says: “There’s no bread today. Today is value only day. Today we won’t accept your money, and we’re not gonna sell you anything either.”

WTF?

Value?

Yeah. No bread. Just lots of value, and if I sign up on their list, I can watch the 30" FREE webinar on how to make the best bread ever. And that at the end of the FREE webinar, there’d be a special offer for the folks who stay till the end.

I’m 125% dumbfounded at this point.

I.

Just.

Want.

Bread.

Take my money, gimme my bread.

That’s why I’m here…that’s what I want…you’ve already shown value with the bread I saw on your page, the slices I’ve eaten, and all the damn testimonials, so GIMME MY BREEEEAAADDDD!!!!
