Facebook "Game"

I must have been new to Facebook in 2011 when I posted this "game" on FB. At least I received some answers so that I didn't look totally stupid. And the comments were clever.

Applesauce

On rare occasion, something will bug me enough to contact the source and make a complaint. I must have had it with trying to get all the applesauce out of a jar.


They did reply. And told me how to get the applesauce out. Suggestions like turn the bottle upside-down and the contents would settle in the lid. Or add a small amount of water and swish it around.

But they did not do what I was hoping for me: Send me a coupon for a FREE jar. Geeze.
