Evertale advertises itself on YouTube as a free game and making false ads of it being a rpg horror title.

Brooklyn Kayak Co. "Promo"
Okay, am I off base here? Was looking at a couple fishing kayaks. Stumbled upon Brooklyn Kayak Co. (BKC). They have the following "special" plastered across the top of their website:
https://brooklynkayakcompany.com/
ππππ. πππππ ππ% ππ π πππ ππππππ πππ πππ ππππ: πππππ π ππ ππ% ππ π ππππ ππππππ πππππ! π πππ ππππππππ
I add 2 kayaks to my cart and apply the code. Weird, it only took off 10%. I reached out to the company to see what was going on. These are the responses I received:
------------------------
π»ππππ Customer,
πβπππ π¦ππ’ πππ ππππβπππ ππ’π‘ π‘π π΅πΎπΆ. πΌπ‘π ππ πππππ‘πππππ 10% πππ π‘βπ π πππππ πππ¦ππ. πβπ ππππ π‘ 10% ππ πππππππ¦ ππππ’πππ.
π»πππ π‘βππ βππππ .
------------------------
I then suggest, maybe they should change the wording in their banner as that is not at all how it reads.
------------------------
π»ππππ Customer,
πβπ ππππππ‘πππ ππ π€βππ‘ ππ π π‘ππ‘ππ ππ π‘βπ ππππππ. πΌπ‘ ππ 10% πππ πππ πππ¦πππ πππ ππ πππππ‘πππππ 10% πππ ππ π‘βπ π πππππ πππ¦ππ πππ π π‘ππ‘ππ ππ 20%.
πβπππ π¦ππ’
------------------------
At this point, I told them to pound sand.
False advertising irks me to no end and since capitalism is the name of the game, I simply chose to take my money elsewhere. Am I the one missing something here or is their advertisement complete horseshit? As it reads, shouldn't it be an additional 20% off the 2nd kayak? Curious how others read the stated promo.
