I do not like products with scratch cards, it is better if they give some discount in price. Canon also pays Tendulkar for ads, actually we pay the rich man. So I decided not to buy Canon printer. It is so stupid, a cricketer promoting printers.

Who even thinks of such offers? This reminds me of a saying...A lottery is a tax on people who are bad at math. If they want to sell their cartridges, they should make them affordable. Right now, printer ink is more costlier than Champagne drop for drop.
