Setting Up

1. Slide the card tray out of the box and place the two Word Card decks (with rounded corners) onto the table, within reach of all players.
2. Each player draws a hand of six Word Cards.
3. Select one player to be the Customer for the first round.

Playing the Game

1. The Customer takes a Customer Card from the card tray, selects either side, reads it out loud, and places it in front of him or herself. The Customer takes on the role printed on the Customer Card for that round.
2. The other players combine two Word Cards from their hands to create an item for the Customer.
3. As soon as any player is ready, that player "pitches" his or her item to the Customer. When one player is finished, anyone else can jump in and make the next pitch. The Customer may cut off any pitch that goes over 30 seconds.

Winning the Game

The printed box back gives the win condition as follows.

• Each player persuades the Customer that their item is the best. The Customer picks the one they like the most and that player wins the Customer Card.
• The Player with the most Customer Cards wins!

Notes on Sources

• The printed insert describes setup and the Customer's and pitching players' actions only. The rules for how a round ends and how the Customer role passes after a round are not in the photographed text and are not transcribed here.
• The base game's rules are in the Snake Oil rulebook and are not repeated here.
