"Hello, we are Those People Who Want the Coffee Shop to Honor Their Six-Month-Old Expired Coupons."

I'm the man who has come to the coffee shop after seeing an ad for a discounted drink in the local paper. I place my order then cheerfully hand the cashier the page, pleased that I am saving my money. However, the barista gently points out to me that the coupon expired in early February, half a year ago. I argue the point, claiming that it really isn't that long ago, and I simply missed the clearly printed expiration date in bold print at the bottom of the page. I call a manager over to plead my case, but she won't budge either, saying something about how the item was seasonal and is no longer offered, blah blah blah. I angrily storm out, vowing to never fall for that establishment's scams again.

It's very nice to meet you.
