Or just buy what was advertised. The law just says that if you advertise 
something cheap, it's not illegal to try to convince the buyer to buy 
something more expensive instead. It's only illegal to advertise the cheap 
one if you refuse or are unable to sell the cheap one.

I'm honestly unsure how you could even deal with a situation if you 
advertised something on sale, then told someone the non-cheap one was 
better, and that was illegal.
