It's "deluxe"

This is my conversation last night buying a gift certificate at the nail salon:

Me: I'd like to get a gift card for a mani/pedi.
Girl @ desk: Which one would you like? We have one for $37 and one for $45
Me: What's the difference?
Girl @ desk: The $45 one is deluxe.
Me: (looking around for people snickering at me) Ok - what does deluxe include?
Girl @ desk: Additional services.

I guess these days, customer service is all about ambiguity.
