Is an advertisement considered an offer?

Answer 1

No, in the US, it is considered an invitation to bargain, which is an action by one party which may appear to be a contractual offer but which is actually inviting others to make an offer of their own.

Answer 2

Generally, advertisements are not considered offers. In contract doctrine, an offeror must direct his or her offer at an identifiable offeree. The offeree doesn't have to be just one person; it can be a group of people. The advertisement must also determine specific terms that will be binding if accepted by the offerree. Most advertisements that we see, then, are not offers. They are simply invitations to consider buying a product. An example of an advertisement that would be an offer is one that includes a phrase such as "first come first serve" along with a price and place to come accept the offer.
