Answer:

Informal in my opinion

Step-by-step explanation:

This email is an example of informal digital media. The quote, "for whopping 45% off the regular price" tells us the grammar is incorrect and the word "awesome" tells us that this email sounds very basic, and awesome is not at all the way to describe a deal for a company. A correct example would be:

Hi Chris,

At Blue Hills Sporting Goods we have a great deal coming up! All camping equipment will be on sale for 45% off its original price. But that's not all, there will be amazing deals on select apparel and shoes ranging anywhere from 20%-40% off. The sale runs from August 12 to 18. It is one week only so get your sporting items now!

Sincerely,

Jason Spranger

Hope this helps!
