"Beware of cheap imitations"

If you're around my age -- I just turned 60 this month -- you probably remember an old advertising slogan, "beware of cheap imitations."  I was reminded of it recently by this sign in the Fiesta Henderson's parking garage:
The Fiesta buffet costs $8.99 for dinner with a player's card, about as cheap as a buffet can get. It's hard to imagine a lower-priced imitation. You may be wondering what you get for your money. I've eaten there several times recently, mostly for convenience, but it isn't bad. You could spend more and get a lot less for your money at a fast-food outlet.

Another funny thing about this sign is the exclamation, "Open 7 days a week!" I can't think of a single casino buffet in the Las Vegas area that isn't open seven days a week.

Now that my daughter has taught me how to post pictures of signs on this blog, I'm sure I'll find more funny (at least to me) ones to share in the future.
