16. In an advertisement by "Regrowth", the company claims its tablets, if taken as directed over a 12-month period, will "make hair grow on a bald man's head." "We could make a billiard ball hairy" is the claim. The advertisement further promises to pay $1,000 to any "bald head" that is not "lush" at the end of the 12months. Jack sees the advertisement and buys the tablets for $2,000, payable monthly. He takes them as directed for 12months but is as bald as ever at the end. He contacts "Regrowth", shows them the "before and after" photos and makes a claim for the $1,000. In reply, "Regrowth" refuses to pay, arguingthat:

(a) advertisements are not offers;

(b) anyway, this particular advertisement was clearly a "jokey thing"; and

(c) as Jack had never accepted the "offer", there could not be a contract. Advise Jack.
