Stimulate This Package!

One of the oldest banks of its kind in the United States, Xytex International, on Tuesday rolled out a stimulus package for customers who are hurting in these tough economic times. Xytex is a sperm bank, and it's offering up to 200 dollars off a vial of sperm to clients wishing to start or add to their family, but need a little help.

"We're all feeling the effects of the economy and, especially for families seeking reproductive options, every dollar counts," according to Xytex spokeswoman Danielle Moores. Consequently, Xytex is offering deals on vials from "select" donors, who come a bit cheaper than the usual "standard" donor.

Select donors, explained Moores, are men from whom Xytex has "many, many vials because they're very successful donors or able to stop in several times a week or -- for whatever reason, we have a huge inventory," and it is being made available in a sort of clearance sale. Xytex prefers to call it the balancing effect of supply and demand. Maybe they could call it the "Don't Blow Your Wad On This Wad" sale.
