Dear Cafe Press,
I am writing because you have a big labor day weekend sale banner at the top of your website. One might suspect that this means you can use the coupon code over labor day weekend - not the case. Apparently labor day weekend is only Saturday in Cafe Press's opinion. I spent a half hour creating a shirt and then at the end I had to buy it for what I thought was not a good price because I didn't want all my hard work to go to waste. It should have been six dollars cheaper (shipping). You deceived me with the banner. If the sale is over, take it down. I feel this is an unscrupulous business practice and that I am entitled to the shipping discount since I was lured into creating a shirt under false pretenses and didn't read the legalese fine print which says that labor day weekend isn't actually labor day weekend on Cafe Press. Come on, Cafe Press. Your prices are too high to begin with. These scams are not needed. I have bought shirts here in the past and there used to be a $9.99 white t-shirt option. Now the cheapest order with shipping is $27. Outrageous!
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Ells,
I am writing you in regard to your restaurant, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. I have visited your restaurant several times over the last year or so and, generally speaking, I enjoy the concept of buying and eating large burritos. However, my experiences with Chipotle have left me dissatisfied.
When my girlfriend and I began dating, we visited Chipotle quite frequently as it was one of her favorites. I soon began to notice swelling around my lips. It got so bad that I switched lip balms several times and eventually went to see a dermatologist and was put on medication for eczema. I started to notice that my lips felt like they were burning mostly after eating at Chipotle. Thankfully the lip issue has passed, since I no longer eat there frequently, but the source of the problem is still troublesome. The salsa which purports to be “mild” is still extremely spicy - so much so that everyone in my party last night remarked that their meal was just too spicy to enjoy. I don’t know if the chicken is already marinated in something spicy, but next time I will try it with no salsa to see if that makes a difference. Suffice it to say, I believe Chipotle needs a milder mild option, as I like the taste of salsa but do not want the excessive spiciness.
The restaurant seems to offer a very limited number of actual food options, which is a minus, even though you can choose toppings. Additionally, though this is less significant for me, the restaurants in this area are generally messy and the decor is bizarrely sparse and cold, resembling a warehouse or a morgue. The lines are frequently long which can be obnoxious, but the employees are always friendly and efficient.
Thank you for spending the time to review my concerns. I would love to be a more frequent patron but would like to see some more options and accommodations for those of us who don’t like four alarm spiciness. Honestly, I can eat banana peppers and things like that without issue. It is not as if I am unacclimated to spicy foods. This is just exceptionally, exceptionally spicy to the point of being unenjoyable.
Gracias,
