Another similar letter I got recently seemed to be depending on the
average consumer's inability to take cube roots, as one of the four
prizes offered was a "frost-free refrigerator with a capacity of 721
cubic inches".  This sounds too good to be true until you try taking
the cube root of 721 to get a rough estimate of the size of this
"refrigerator".
