What's the taste of a free lunch?

Bilstol_1A few days ago I was passing a rather weird mix of antique shop and men's beaty store in my neighborhood. And discovered this fabulous piece. A quite badly maintained child seat for the car with the attractive price of zero (the sign says "Gratis" which means "Free" in Swedish).

Who think this is a good deal? Would you put your baby in this seat, feeling you have made a responsible choice?

Sometimes low price is a bad thing, even if your own resources are limited. And "free" is rather useless if it leads to a bad experience. Like all those free publications littering our cities. They are free, but far too often they contain nothing but crap. I wish advertisers also would figure that out.
