如果你在11月7日周六去沃爾瑪，雖然以正價(jià)200美元的價(jià)格買到Xbox360系統(tǒng)，但那一天，買Xbox360的同時(shí)可以得到100美元的禮品券。如果想建立自己真正的娛樂中心，就將那100美元的禮品券用來買個(gè)嶄新的PlayStation3吧！PassageBTextStudyBroadenYourViewWal-Mart's"BlackFriday"PromotionThat’sright,you’llbeabletopickupanXbox360,anda120GBPlayStation3,foronly$400.YoucouldgetaWiiandtheXbox360for$300.Oryoucouldjustbuyoneortwogamesforyournew360.Thereareotherdealstobehad,suchasaBlue-rayplayerfor$150,ora$300laptop,standardstuffforthissortofpromotion.AdvertisingthesegoodsbeforeBlackFridayshouldgiveWal-Martabigadvantage.Andtheretailerwillhavelittlecompetitionthisweekendintermsofproductprices.Thispromotioncouldevencauselongcustomerqueuesinsomelocations.Ifyoutakeadvantageofthisoffer,besuretoletusknowhowitgoes.Translation當(dāng)然了，只花400美元，您就可以買走一個(gè)Xbox360和一個(gè)120GB的PlayStation3。您還可以只花300美元就買到一個(gè)Xbox360,外加一個(gè)Wii?；蛘吣徒o您的全新的Xbox360捎一兩個(gè)游戲回去吧！
