When I think
of the two most overpriced items that I buy on a regular basis,
I'd probably have to say "baby carrots and name brand printer
ink." Just because a carrot is tiny, or ink is name brand,
I have to pay double for it? Actually, before I continue about printer
ink, let's talk more about baby carrots. Did you know that they
aren't actually "baby" at all, but just carrot pieces
whittled down from the irregular-shaped carrots (known as "culls")
that used to be thrown away? It's true. At first I felt cheated,
but soon I realized that this is a brilliant idea. Take something
that people wouldn't have otherwise bought, change it, and then
charge double for it! More

Therefore, there
is a sort of irony in the name "Carrot Ink." I think of
them as the baby carrots of the printer ink industry. Except in
this case, they are taking something that people are already overpaying
for; printer ink. After creating an alternative of equal quality,
they cut the price in half, and then sell it to happy consumers.
They even offer Carrot Ink Coupons and promotion codes online for
extra discounts! If that isn't enough, they offer free shipping
discounts, and no tax outside of texas!

About Carrot Ink: All of the ink that Carrot Ink sells
meets stringent ISO9001 quality standards. This just means that
their discount ink performs at the same level as the name brand
stuff. (which they also sell if you still aren't convinced - Most
of the coupons don't apply to name brand or "OEM" ink
because the profit margins are tiny.)
Besides offering
ink and toner at discount prices, Carrot Ink is also known for their
fast shipping and excellent customer service. In fact, orders that
are placed before 4pm ship the same day. No need to wait 2 weeks
for your ink because you used a free shipping coupon. If you really
need your ink fast, they have 2-day and overnight shipping options
as well.
