Carpet:
Hey you! This is your carpet speaking. Helllooo! Hey, I take a real beating from you and your family everyday. The kids track mud all over me, the dog leaves a bunch of fur balls everywhere. You spilt coffee the other day while entertaining guests, and your husband left a trail of potato chip crumbs from the sofa to the kitchen last night while watching the football game. Don’t you think it’s about time to give me a good cleaning?
Now pick up that phone and call Master Cleaners now. I see them on the TV all the time. They’ll clean any three rooms for $29.95, and any connecting hall is free. Plus, they’ll throw in a free bottle of their amazing stain remover. And if you call now, you’ll receive a 15% discount off their already low prices. So come on! Give them a call at 637-5001, and make life for me a little easier. Uh, nice doggie, nice doggie . . .
