Two Texas dealers are trying to flip General Motors'
low stock price into profits by offering customers 50 shares of GM common stock to buy a new GM vehicle by the end of the month. Will and Corrie Churchill, owners of
Frank Kent Motor Co. in Fort Worth, Texas, began their promotion this week and will offer it to the first 100 customers "because this is GM's 100-year anniversary," Will Churchill said. We can't make this up. Seriously, if they'd come to me with this as a joke in a post I would have cut it for being too easy, formulaic and punny. Guess it serves me right. Shown up by reality. I hate it when that happens. Wait, it's happening again — guess what the name of the promotion is. Hit the jump to find out.
