Everything must go (Selected items only)
I went out to grab some bargains today and all stores have those “Sale” posters trying to attract costumers. Some posters say up to 70% off but when you go inside you will find most items have only 20-30 % off and the ones that are supposed to be more than half reduced were actually the ones that nobody wants to buy.
One store was covered with stickers with the word “sale” from top to bottom and you can’t see anything through the window anymore.
In fairness I did find some bargains but I didn’t really need them so I didn’t bother buying them.
On my way back home, I passed by a bookstore with the best trick of all of them. It says, Everything Must Go. I got curious so I went to check what’s in store. When I got near I saw the small print saying, “Selected items only”. How can everything be selected items only?
I happened to be a very practical buyer and I only buy what I need. So these propagandas really don’t appeal to me much.
