May we suggest?

This afternoon I was searching for shoes, and one company that has fit me well before is Dansko. So, in search of a new pair of their brand, I ended up on their site. I was amused by their spoof off of usual advertising/upselling. Where most companies would have a “May we suggest?” section with other items to be sold, Dansko has one that has things like:

Baking a pie from scratch
Recycling
Heifer International (don’t know what this is supposed to mean, but it has to do with female cows…)
World Peace
Visiting a museum
A vacation

Yes, you may. I just might do some of those on occasion.
