Attracting More Bees with Honey »
I'm not always a fan of the cliche, but every once in a while, they do come in handy. For instance, I was in Office Depot one Sunday morning, picking up something, when suddenly a lady simply explodes on the cashier about how she absolutely has to get the item in her basket for the price on the shelf. It seems that since someone neglected to remove last week's sale price from the item in question, not only does she want to get the discount from last week's sale, she also wants to get the "buy two, get one free" from this week's sale.
Now don't get me wrong here - I'm not against taking advantage of an opportunity when one arises. That isn't the point, so please don't let me give you the wrong idea. If the price is still up from last week on the item in question, and the riser has this week's new sale on it, the lady is likely entitled to the pricing, and I'm all for it.It's the fact that she's saving a grand total of fifty cents and she didn't even have to raise her voice to to it that really has me confused.
