Answer the following question

1. Jane deals in the supply of home-made cakes. Her cakes are in high demand and normally she makes £2,000 a month. Cakes are even more in demand in December when the Christmas season begins and normally she makes £4,000 in December.

In November her oven breaks and she sees an advert from OvenCo Ltd. in a local newspaper ‘industrial ovens at a bargain price of £1,000.’ She immediately calls the company to buy an oven. However, no-one answers the phone so she leaves a message saying ‘I’d like to buy an oven, I have put the cheque in the post. Please deliver as soon as possible.’ She then posts the cheque for £1,000 to the address on the advert. 15 day later she receives the cheque back with a note saying ‘sorry, no ovens are left.’
Advise Jane on her contractual rights in the scenario.
