Okay, here's the poll I saw today when, for whatever reason, I actually decided to use this pointless channel (Nintendo, weren't you supposed to be about the games?).
Basically it's asking "What is a better deal? 50% off or two for the price of one?"?
What do they actually expect people to vote here? Do the math idiots! You don't need a vote for this! Popular opinion is not going to change objective reality. Two for the price of one is identical to buying two items at 50% off. The difference is you have a choice to just buy one if you go with 50% off, so you can either get both at the price of what would normally be just one, or only pay half and walk out with that.
It is the better deal, and that's an objective fact. You can't "vote" the other option better. Frickin' idiots...

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
