Ok, but I couldn't understand that Sandip Tarkars said that "We have got increased demands from customers to extend the festival. We expect 15 to 20 per cent increase in our weekly sales target by extending this festival" but why he didn't extend the festibal? http://www.domaainname.com/

First I was told that lucky draw will take place on 11th Jan-09. When I went to Big Bazar at Great India Place, Noida, on 11th Jan-09, I got responded that it has got shifted to 18th Jan-09. Lastly when I went again on 28th Jan-09, I had a bad experience with the customer care representative, where I got response that we dont know anything about this lucky draw. May I know what is happening on this lucky draw, whether it going to happen otherwise this may give bad impression in public as the same may get considered as a chitting with customers. Kindly give cleare messege on your web site immediately. Thanks & Regards, Santosh Mankar
