I have always been a sucker for buy one item, get one free. My family members are just about sore throat screaming at me that I would even by 100 kgs of salt, if they gave me a free bucket after that.
But I decided to turn a new leaf when I bought two new plastic jars of Tata Tea, Temptations, which contained Assam Tea in its jars. The shop keeper handed over to me two new fat looking mugs with a picture of a pretty woman on it. I greedily grabbed the mugs and tea jars and paid for the tea hastily. At home I bragged about the sturdy green mugs and how happy I was to get such a good bargain.
Only until I had my first mug of this tea. Then I wanted to throw the mug and the tea on the manufacturer’s head. On boiling the tea, the tea leaves are so huge and flaky that after it is boiled, it looks like palak vegetable without the paneer. It taste a lot worst. No wonder the mugs are happily given along with it.
