What You Get:
It’s one of those ads where they don’t list what you get and you have to make an educated guess based on the photo, but it looks like you get at least 2 lipsticks, a mascara, a 4-colour compact, a large tote and your choice of one of the following skincare products: High Resolution Refill-3X, Renergie Microlife R.A.R.E. or Absolue Premium Bx.

Good ol’ Pinky here is just one of the hundreds of cultural oddities dotting the American landscape. Set up next to a Citgo station in DeForest, Wisconsin, this big pink elephant has long been the subject of photographs and delighted travelers.

But taking all of that out of the equation — what are we left with? A big pink elephant with glasses.

…and GO, CAPTIONEERS!
