Error Corrected
In Moody Bros.
Freezer Advertisement
An error was made in last week's
advertisement for Moody Bros. Fur
niture Company.
The advertisement showed a 172
cubic feet freezer and the pric‘d
given was $579.95 when it should
have been only $499.95. .«
In other words, the price shown
in last week’s advertisement was
SBO too much.
In their advertisement this week
Moody Bros. Furniture Company is
offering a big 26.1 cubic feet freez
er for $579.95. They have several
sizes of this famous REVCO food
freezer and will be glad to have
customers come in and see their line
of freezers.
