The Rambam says its better to spend more on matunis luevyonim than mishloch munos. However I saw mishloach muonos advertised for $999. So if he spends so much on mishloach munos, what are you supposed to spend on matunos luvyonim? Probably $1000, but not everyone has so much money. So the shevet musar says that the Rambam only means somone like him who's wealthy. So even if he gives $1000 for matunos luevyonim he still has $999 for mishloach munos, but a regular person should rather spend more on mishloach munos. So this salesman means to say what mishloach manos is and more than that should go for matunos luevyonim.
