Document Summary
Summary: def. company placed ad saying if you take the product you wont get the flu & said if you did get the flu you are entitled to 100 pounds, took product & got flu. If we pay turning us into insurers and its illegal to sell insurance without a license and we don"t have one. Reasoning: court did not comment on insurance argument. Just picking up something doesn"t commit you to buying it thus offer & acceptance is really at cash register where there is supervision: goods on the shelf is an invite to offer/invitation to contract. Original trial: court asked why she gave information she said to clear her conscience. Judge asks jury to do a finding of facts for her motives. Jury found that she felt morally compelled and therefore shouldn"t get money. She performed the conditions required = entitled to reward motives are not relevant.
