Mystery selling technique: day 4

Every morning at 6:30am, my grandparents attend a 'seminar' where they come back with a ton of free stuff. Curious as to what this 'seminar' was about, I joined them a couple days ago. There I was, sitting among a sea of senior citizens listening to a loud man talk about how the young should respect the elderly and how senior citizens should not be treated like pets. At the end of the 1.5 hour talk, there was no mention of anything being sold. Instead, the speaker told us we were all getting 2 bags of Tide detergent and encouraged the audience to bring their friends back the next day; if a full house, he promised everyone 2 bottles of red wine. Well, as pictured above, it was a full house and now we can have a wine and wontons party. Today, I will be attending the seminar again to see if there will be any selling or just more brain-washing. Stay tuned!
