Strange ad in the Herald

    Bought The Herald this evening and saw this very bizarre ad.

    I'll quote it word for word:

    "Hard to Die? Strange item for sale. A Hard to Die lacy white bra. Only one owner. Enquiries within".

    There's no other info, no phone number, no box number.
    What does it mean?!

    Lol, it's quite strange isn't it?
    Normally in an ad there's a box number or phone number..Where are you meant to make the enquiry? Ring up The Herald?

    Hard to Die

    Five buxom and scantily clad women are left alone to take inventory at a lingerie company. The janitor is kind of spooky, and there are rumors about him being involved in a tragic incident a few years back, and he's giving them the heebie-jeebies. They accidentally open a mysterious package and something other-worldly escapes, and they must fend for their lives




    If you're female and find yourself working with 4 other scantily clad females..careful now:p

    Herald can't manage to sell much ad space so they are forced to fill the empty space with something.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,295 ✭✭✭Joe10000


    Was lacey spelled lacy ? My guess is the whole ad. is some mad typo.

    Well from the OP it does appear that lacy was spelled correctly and this typo you speak of is a figment of your imagination.

    Zaph is correct.
    Lacy was not a typo. Lacey is a person's name.
