Hola, burciaga. En este caso, y en la gran mayoría de los casos, un poco de contexto nos ayuda mucho porque la traducción puede ser muchas cosas...

Default Re: La venta del uno y media

¿Será que se refiere a que compras un par y medio de zapatos? No exactamente, pero que al precio de uno, te dan un par y medio. Naturalmente, tendrás que pagar el resto del medio par para completar el valor. ¿O te regalarán unas medias? En ese contexto, es lo único que se me ocurre...

La verdad que no es caro el mensaje, así que decidí investigar un poco... Seguramente, sea una mala traducción de esta promoción: http://www.payless.com/Catalog/TLCat...=Sale&cm_id=tn

Default Re: La venta del uno y media

la traducción correcta es:
  • "compre un par y llévese otro a mitad de precio"
o bien,
  • "con la compra de un par de zapatos, se lleva el segundo par a mitad de precio"
