A) Acme Supastore advertised its 'price promise' heavily in the Nottown Evening News.

This promise stated that Acme was the cheapest retailer in the city of Nottown and that it would guarantee that this was true. The advertisement stated: We are so confident that we are the cheapest in the area that we guarantee that you cannot buy a television anywhere in Nottown cheaper than from us. We also guarantee that if you buy any television from us and give us notice in writing that you could have bought it cheaper at any other retailer within five miles of our Supastore on the same day we will refund twice the difference in price. Offer to remain open for the month of December. Any claim to be received in writing within 5 days of purchase. Belinda saw the advertisement and was persuaded by it to buy a television from Acme Supastore for 299. The contract was made on Monday 3 December. On Saturday 8 December Belinda found that a neighboring shop was selling an identical model of television for 289 and had been

selling at this price for the past six months. Belinda immediately telephoned Acme Supastore to say that she was claiming her money back. She also posted a letter claiming her money back. The letter arrived on Monday 10 December. Acme Supastore are refusing to refund any of the purchase price. Advise Belinda as to whether or not any contract has been made. (5 marks)

B) A company which deals in gold and jewelry employs two private security guards to guard the premises each night. The security guards are both self-employed, as the company feels that it is safer to employ people who do not work for the same organization. One night, one of the security guards phones in to say that he will not be able to work for the rest of the week, as he is ill. The company tells the other security guard that he must work single-handed for the remainder of the week. The security guard manages to do this, although it involves a certain amount of extra work. At the end of the

week the company tells the security guard who worked alone that he will be paid double wages for the week. Now the company has changed its mind and pays the guard only his normal amount. Advise the security guard as to whether or not he will be entitled to the extra amount promised. (5 marks)
