Truth or Spin
A poster might be honest or it might be spin. Tap your answer and find out why. Ten rounds.
- Made with real lemons: 6 lemons in every jug. — Honest: it is specific and anyone can check it.
- 12 of the 20 classmates who tasted it picked it as their favourite. — Honest: a real number from a real taste test, and you say how many people tried it.
- Sold out in two hours last Saturday. — Honest: it already happened and your notebook can prove it.
- Contains nuts. — Honest: telling people about allergens protects them, even if it costs a sale.
- Bring your own cup and pay 1 coin less. — Honest: the offer is clear, simple and has no catch.
- Handmade: each bracelet takes about 20 minutes. — Honest: it explains why the price is what it is.
- New flavour in test: tell us what you think. — Honest: it admits it is a test and asks for feedback.
- Not for children under 3: small parts. — Honest: a safety warning is part of selling something responsibly.
- We give 10% of our profit to the school library: see our notebook. — Honest, if you really do it and can show the notebook.
- Open Saturdays 10 to 12 by the library. — Honest: when and where, clearly, so people can plan.
- Half price this week while lemons are cheap. — Honest: a real reason for a real discount, and it says how long.
- Not happy? We give your coins back. — Honest, as long as you really keep the promise.
- Ingredients: flour, butter, sugar, egg. — Honest: you list what is inside, so people with allergies can decide.
- 9 of our 10 first customers came back the next day. — Honest: a small, real number that is not pretending to be bigger.
- The best lemonade in the world, guaranteed to make you happier! — Spin: nobody can check “best in the world”, and a drink cannot guarantee happiness.
- Everyone at school buys from us! — Spin: it is an exaggeration, and people can see it is not true.
- Only 3 left!!! (you have 30 in the box) — Spin: fake scarcity pushes people to rush. It is a lie.
- Cures a bad day! — Spin: it promises an effect it cannot deliver, like a health claim.
- Their cookies taste like cardboard. Don't go there! — Spin: putting a rival down with an untrue claim is unfair. Praise your own work instead.
- Buy now or you'll regret it forever! — Spin: pressure and fear, not information.
- 100% natural, zero sugar! (it has 3 spoons of sugar) — Spin: it says something that is simply false. That can hurt someone who avoids sugar.
- ★★★★★ rated by customers (we wrote the reviews ourselves). — Spin: fake reviews pretend other people said it. That is lying about evidence.
- FREE!* (*conditions in tiny letters you cannot read) — Spin: hiding the catch in tiny letters is a trick. Say the conditions clearly.
- Scientists say our juice makes you smarter. — Spin: “scientists say” with no name and no study is a fake authority.
- Offer ends in 5 minutes! (it says the same every day) — Spin: fake urgency. If the deadline never really arrives, it is a lie.
- Loved by famous YouTubers! — Spin: no names and no proof. Borrowing fame you do not have is not honest.
- The lowest price in the whole world! — Spin: you cannot check every price in the world, so the claim cannot be proven.
- A puppy with every purchase! — Spin: a promise you obviously cannot keep. It is a lie to get attention.
- Recommended by doctors! — Spin: which doctors? Without names and proof it is a fake authority.
The rule to keep: say what is true, show what you can prove, and never pressure.
Simulation only: no real money, no personal data, no get-rich promises.
