Final Answer : E, Explanation :  Tonya's ad is considered an offer because it specifies a limited quantity (first 200 people) and provides a specific means by which the offer could be accepted (arriving between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM on the specified date with a dollar bill), which indicates a clear intent to be bound by those terms.
