6 Chances to Win!

I saw a commercial that made me laugh.  “Everyone who buys a bed will get not 1, but 6 entries into our sweepstakes to win (some loser prize)” 

If you haven’t caught it yet, the reason I laugh is they are banking on people being poor at math.  If everyone has 6 entries, it is the same odds as 1 entry.  The sad thing is, I bet it works.

I saw the same ad and did the quick math in my head, too. How stupid do they think we are?
