English term or phrase: Get outta town
"Get outta town" (slang expression) meaning "unbelievable/wow!" because the offer is "book 6 days of space rentals & obtain 15" - Is there a French equivalent? Thank you for your help!!

French translation:Incroyable! Ça n'a pas de sens ...
Explanation:
"Get outta town" is an English slang expression meaning "a general exclamation of disbelief". It means pretty much the same thing as "Get out of here". On pourrait peut-être dire "incroyable", "ça n'a pas de sens", etc.
