In japan, giftgiving has been raised to such a precise art that there are actually a series of 'IAA:lays involving the giving of specific gifts to specific people. Why is gift -giving so important in Japan? It has to do with FACE—how you're perceived by ot4ket¢. Now, I'm not advocating that we elevate gift -giving to the sante level, bur we could certainly learn a thing or two from the Japanese. Let me give an example: Twa people turn yp at your Christmas party One has a $5.99 box of assorted chocolates that hes picked up at the drugstore on his way over; 6 rho other rile nie'ttt��, S.jP,E, "• ! i 11,Alkwb1 cr :4eisat$L £vk25o' grate, psis wondetfvtty'big gala cowers box contains 24 smaller; uf►dtvidu 3Uy wra . r '-° bars that ate made aline, creamy European c r. °late and finely crushed hazelnuts) Now ,what do these two gifts say to the host?

NEL - PRESIDENT'S CHOICE "EXTRA RAISIN" RAISIN BRAN 25% MORE SINS THAN KELLOGG'S RAISIlVBRAN.r► ••r 0 ® . •• • *ONCE AGAIN THE TRADER IS FOUND GUILTY OF EXAGGERATION FOR EFFECT! Raisin Bran is one of the most popular breakfast cereals in Canada and you've probably seen the TV commercial that Kellogg's has produced to sell its product. The song goes, "There's two scoops of raisins in Kellogg's Raisin Bran.' Now, just what does this mean, since there are no standard -sized scoops in this great nation? A scoop can be as large as a shovel, or as small as a triple-A battery. With this in mind, we set out to differentiate our new Raisin Bran from'Kellogg's ON A MEANINGFUL BASIS!! We completed an analysis of the raisin content of Kellogg's Raisin Bran and added 25% more raisins than we found in the average package of Kellogg's sampled. So when you pick up a box of our new President's Choice Extra Raisin -Raisin Bran cereal, you'll know that our 525 gram box contains, on average, 25% more raisins than a typical box of Kellogg's Raisin Bran (based on our sampling Sept. 26, 1985). You'll like the extra raisins but you'll love the money you save when you buy The President's Choice; our introductory price is only $1.99 for the large (525 g) box. Compare with the up to $2.85 charged in many Toronto supers for Kellogg's Raisin Bran. 25% MORE RAISINS WITH UP TO 30% SAVINGS! THAT'S WHY IT'S "THE PRESIDENT'S CHOICE.' Available: L, LS, Z. STOP THE PRESSES: We've just received another President's Choice cereal, our new Oat 'O's. Compare to the qualityof Cheerios and particularly check the price...only $1.99 for a 425 g package.
