The Spears Special

IN THIS ECONOMY, Clayton Homes knows very well that you aren't going to buy an entire mobile home without getting something in return. That's why they have put together an offer you cannot refuse. If you buy a modular, manufactured or mobile home from Clayton before New Year's Eve, they will give you an entire can of Van Camp's Pork & Beans! That's a 60 cent value!

The offer isn't anywhere on Clayton's website, but it is currently running on The Columbia Daily Herald's website.

Hopefully Clayton's mobile homes come with indoor plumbing. Because once you devour that entire can of pork & beans (with bits of a Slim Jim for extra protein) and wash it down with a plastic cup filled with Meister Brau, you're going to need a toilet bad.

If this still doesn't make any sense to you, just think of it like this.... If you buy a can of pork & beans for $50,000, you'll get an entire mobile home for free! A STEAL!

Exactly, MK!

Im afraid that with an offer like that it would be very hard to say no...
Am I able to move my Clayton mobile home next to my own personal swamp thats only 150 miles away from the nearest Walmart and 100 miles from the closest paved highway?
More room for the 10 kids Ive got all with different daddys( I like variety) to run around and catch posssums and racoons for dinner...

Why is it that when my home state (and very nearly my home town, I'm twenty minutes from Columbia) gets in the news it's something idiotic? Highest teen pregnancy rates, nekkid people fighting at Waffle House, Mule Day, the list is endless. No wonder people think Southerners are stupid.

There's coffee in that nebula...

Is it a really gigantic can of beans?

Slutleena's picture

I'm really pissed about this. I'm in the process of buying a home (although one not on wheels) and there's no free beans in my deal. I feel robbed.

"If this still doesn't make any sense to you, just think of it like this.... If you buy a can of pork & beans for $50,000, you'll get an entire mobile home for free! A STEAL!" Thanks MK, now it all makes sense! Why buy a can of pork and beans when you can get the house for free!!!!

OHPLEAZ's picture

Damn, makes me want to buy a home so I can get a can of pork and beans, lol! Isn't buying a can of pork and beans cheaper than buying a house? Unless, the cost of pork and beans have gone up and they are too expensive for us common people to buy.

The one on the bottom right doesn't look like a mobile home.

They sure are getting klassier. I was driving on the west side but like the new west side and they had a mobile park in a gated commuity and and community pool and playground. It looked like an actual neighborhood. Each mobile home had a front yard and porch with garage. It was so weird. Like the wealthy version of trailer park.

I'm a hard bargainer...Throw in a bag of Pork Rhinds (bbq flavored) and a can of Skoal and I'll think about it over a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer...while I yell at my half nekkid 6th common law husband frolicking amongst my many offspring around and about the varied and sundry collection of rusted out cars on blocks and house hold appliances to 'STOP MESSIN WITH THEM KIDS THAT WAY...IT AIN'T RIGHT...' then manually pull out that abcess tooth that's been 'givin me fits'....

the beans could be the first "gourmet" meal you can have in your brand new (mobile) home.

Those are manufactured and/or modular, not the mobile home.

Oh, and Columbia is also the home of the national headquarters for the Sons of Confederate Veterans. And "Hannah Montana: The Movie" was filmed in downtown Columbia. Quite an honor, eh?

Columbia Tennessee is famous for being the "Mule Capital of the World". Mule Day has been a tradition since the 1800s, when the first Monday in April brought huge crowds to the animal livestock show and Mule Day Market (originally called 'Breeder's Day').

Mule Day, with its festive air eventually evolved into what is now an almost week-long celebration of the mule. Thousands of visitors come to Columbia to take part in the numerous activities ranging from working mule and best of breed events, to horse shows, arts and crafts booths, and a flea market. The smell of barbecue specialties and homemade pies blends with the smoky aroma of roasted corn and funnel cake sweetness.
For more information on the events, go to the Mule Day site at www.muleday.com. Brochures with detailed information and locations of activities and rules and regulation can be obtained by calling the Mule Day Office at (931) 381-9557.

babybunny: cute avie, and they'd prolly throw in some Ballpark franks and regular buns if you asked nicely. Maybe a bbq to boot!

babybunny's picture

well, thank God they are name brand beans...instead of ones I have never heard of. These houses will probably fall apart upon transit, God knows I saw three this year that were abandoned by the side of the road...ended up being spray painted by gangs...too damn funny...I would get this house for sure if they threw in some hot dogs...
