Title: HUGE SALE (sort of)
Post by: sparky961 on January 04, 2012, 10:00:26 PM

I was sorting through some pictures this evening and I came across some pictures I took about a year ago at a local grocery store.  I thought I'd share and maybe get a chuckle or two...

Would the sale influence your decision to buy some?

Well, I wouldn't travel far to take advantage of the offer!

At a national supermarket here in the UK, I saw bottles of wine on offer last year. In big letters,
"Buy two for 9.99!" In smaller letters, "4.49 each."

Wouldn't work here. The smallest coin is 5 cents so all prices are rounded up (or down).
This doesn't stop shops from advertising items for $3.98 even though you'll actually pay $4.00
